Early American Adventure Camp
Ages 8-12
Early American Adventure Camp is the Noah Webster House's full day camp, offered in conjunction with West Hartford’s Westmoor Park.
Through activities at both the Noah Webster House and Westmoor Park, children experience first-hand the chores, games and history of the past. This year, each week offers a different theme and a new set of activities! Week One campers will learn about Piracy in the 1700s, and Week Two campers will experience Early America Through The Seasons. At Westmoor Park, children care for the barnyard animals, tend the vegetable garden, and create crafts from nature.
