Last Days of Summer at Trout Lake - Tuesday to Friday, August 25-28, 2026 - Ages 4-7

A SUNHOUSE OUTDOOR DAY CAMP FOR AGES 4 TO 7

Tuesday, August 25 to Friday, August 28, 2026 | Trout Lake, East Vancouver

6:1 child-to-educator ratio.

One last spot, four days, the final week of summer. Monday is full, so this is a Tuesday through Friday place in our Trout Lake group.

What Your Child Will Experience

Children spend their day outside at Trout Lake (John Hendry Park) in East Vancouver, using the grassy fields and trees around the lake. Sunhouse Camps are full-day summer programs for children ages 4 to 7. Every educator is trained in The Sunhouse Method™, our proprietary approach to children's outdoor learning.

A Day in the Flow

The day begins with a walk into the morning, an energizing route around the lake with themed scavenger hunts to ground the children and gather the group. Older campers take on small leadership moments by reading the trail or supporting younger friends.

Shared meals happen twice a day. Snack mid-morning, lunch in the early afternoon. We eat together, and educators read aloud while children eat. This is intentional. Calm food, calm bodies, calm groups.

Between meals, children explore. Some days mean building shelters with sticks and tarps. Some days, mud and sand play at the lakeshore. Some days, hands-on experiments using natural materials. Every day includes generous time for child-led play in the grass and among the trees around the lake.

In the afternoon, we move into a more structured activity block, often a craft, a build, or a cooperative group game. As the day winds down, we walk back together and gather for a reflection circle or quiet game before pickup.

This is a Sunhouse day. There are hundreds of these in a single session.
