Summer Camps

Science gets delightfully messy in this hands-on camp filled with fizzing experiments, creative concoctions, and barnyard biology! Campers become mini scientists as they explore animal adaptations, conduct nature-inspired experiments, and use real tools to investigate the world around them. From goat-approved slime to chicken egg drops, learning has never been so exciting (or gooey)!

​

Perfect for curious minds and messy hands

Calling all future animal healers! For every kid who dreams of becoming an animal doctor, this camp is the perfect place to start! Campers will explore basic anatomy, learn how to observe and assess animal health, and practice mock check-ups using plushies and real-life animal examples. They'll also discover how veterinarians work alongside sanctuary caregivers to keep animals happy and healthy.

 A gentle, engaging intro to animal care and biology

Imagination runs wild in this art-filled adventure! Campers will meet a new animal inspiration each day and use their unique traits—like a goat’s panoramic view or a donkey’s loyalty—to spark stories, crafts, and collaborative projects. From barn mural painting to storytelling circles, this camp celebrates creativity and compassion in equal measure.

 Perfect for budding artists and animal lovers alike

Saddle up for a reading adventure like no other! At our Horse-Powered Reading Camp, young readers build confidence, fluency, and a love for books through quiet, one-on-one reading time with our gentle equine friends. Surrounded by nature and supported by caring mentors, campers explore storytelling, literacy games, and horse-themed tales—blending emotional connection with educational growth in a calm, magical environment.

Wonderful for reluctant or emergent readers

Join us for three magical days of creativity, color, and connection at Stardust Sanctuary! Young artists will explore a variety of mediums, meet inspiring animal ambassadors, and create art that reflects the beauty of nature and self-expression. From hands-on projects to a final mini gallery show, this camp is all about letting imagination soar.

Slow down and soak in the magic of the sanctuary. In this peaceful, sensory-rich camp, kids will practice mindfulness through animal observation, nature walks, creative journaling, yoga in the pasture, and quiet reading with our gentle animals. We'll explore how connecting with animals and nature helps us understand emotions, build empathy, and care for ourselves and others.

A gentle camp for sensitive souls, creative thinkers, and big feelers

Calling all future doctors, nurses, and scientists! In this mini med school, campers dive into the fascinating world of biology and body systems—both human and animal. Through hands-on experiments, anatomy models, mock diagnostics, and even bandaging practice on plush "patients," kids will build their science skills and compassion. We'll explore what it takes to keep bodies healthy and strong, from the barn to the clinic.
