Get your kids out and rolling along Calgary's bike pathways all day long at the Tour De Calgary camp. Kids will bike between 5 to 25 kilometers per day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm) and stop at places of interest along the way. This camp is designed for kids entering grade 2 that can already ride a bike.

The Scientist
Grad is a few years away, but budding scientists may want an opportunity to scope out the U of C's Faculty of Science a few years early at The Scientist. Kids entering grade 2 conduct lab experiments (potentially including animal dissection), blast off into space (and make a model of their findings) or investigate the digestive process of animals at this Mini University camp.

Director’s Cut Stop-Motion, Digital Comics Camp
Kids love to watch movies and they love to make them, too. The Director's Cut Stop-Motion, Digital Comics Camp gives kids aged 6 and up the chance to make their own movie using their toys, costumes and creativity. The camps include a trip to Cineplex theatres to watch a current film, and a day in the pool (for a change of scenery). Kids get a copy of their group masterpieces to take home following a private screening for parents.

Summer Art Workshops
Budding artists create a canvas worth keeping (and displaying) at 4Cats. Paint or sculpt the extraterrestrial and sci-fi at these one, two or three hour workshops for kids starting at age 3. With different themes every day, sign up for just one or a variety of classes to give your little one their art fix for the summer.
