Camp Bet Yeladim is also available for children who have completed Kindergarten and have not turned 7 yet. Children who were enrolled at Glasser Preschool during our 2020-2021 school year who will have not yet turned 3 by September 1st are welcome to attend Camp Bet Yeladim this summer too. This program provides fresh air and fun in a supervised camp conducted by trained adult staff. Camp is held outdoors on the lawn of Oak Park Temple’s backyard and in our air-conditioned classrooms. Our campers’ days consist of a combination of indoor and outdoor fun, water play, songs, art activities, stories, and more. There are weekly special theme days such as Pajama Day, Water Day, and Costume Day. Fridays we will celebrate Shabbat with special art activities, giving Tzedakah, Challah and grape juice at snack time, and Shabbat songs and stories together as a whole camp. We plan to operate Camp Bet Yeladim 2021 using the strict COVID19 protocols which we put into place starting last summer. We will be offering two four-week sessions this summer with a week break between sessions to allow for deep cleaning of the classrooms and no mixing of groups of children. We will not be able to pro-rate sessions or session fees for anyone this summer because group sizes will be small and no one else will be able to take a child’s place for part of the session. There is an additional $20 fee per session per child this summer to help offset additional supplies and staff time required as a result of the COIVD19 protocols. You can choose to your child to attend camp for our traditional three-hour half-day program [8:30-11:30 AM] or our longer five-hour day [8:30 AM to 1:30 PM], which includes lunch provided by Gourmet Gorilla. Pursuant to DCFS regulations children may not bring their own lunch to Camp Bet Yeladim. We are offering two four-week sessions this summer to comply with our strict COVID protocols. Sign up for one or two of our camp sessions! Session Aleph meets from June 7th to July 2nd; we will be closed the week of July 5th for deep cleaning; Session Bet meets from July 12th to August 6th.
