Summer Camps & Workshops
Colonial Kid’s Adventure Camp (Ages 8-12)
(Ages 8-11) Boys and girls explore life in the 1700s by spending a week as a colonial child! By doing activities at both the historic Noah Webster House and the farm at Westmoor Park, children experience first hand the games, fun, and chores of colonial times. During the week, children become colonial "characters" and help to cook their lunches over an open-hearth. They explore Noah Webster's house and garden, work on crafts, and play games. At Westmoor Park, children encounter life on a farm by caring for the barnyard animals, tending the vegetable garden, and creating food and crafts from the bountiful natural resources of the park.
Monday, Wednesday, and Friday sessions will be held at the Noah Webster House, 227 South Main Street. Tuesday and Thursday sessions will be held at Westmoor Park, 119 Flagg Road.

Bookworm Adventure (Ages 3-6)
Join us this summer at the Noah Webster House for a "Bookworm Adventure" workshop where children explore language and literacy through storytelling, the use of a felt board to illustrate what they have learned, and activities that will make the story come to life. This is a teacher-led program using Noah Webster's House, the Museum, and our hands-on discovery space to inspire children to love to read at this critical stage of learning! Children must be toilet trained.
