Programs
The classes, camps and experiences this business offers.
Expanding Horizons
This is the classic Junior Gan Israel experience for children ages 2 ½ to 6 years old. This complete summer package includes crafts and games, professional sports instruction, and special events. Field trips are carefully selected for age and safety. Private swim time is held at Oakton Water Playground. Each week we highlight a different Jewish theme, which is conveyed through the songs, crafts, and other activities of the week. Children who are ages 2½ to 3 may be enrolled in either Bright Beginnings or Expanding Horizons.
Bright Beginnings
This option is JGI designed specifically for your toddler, ages 2-3. From water and outdoor play to art and music, these campers are introduced to a broad range of enriching activities in a setting created just for them. In Bright Beginnings, the staff-child ratio is lower, and warm & loving early childhood professionals focus on developing your child's motor skills and social interactions at an appropriate level.
Afternoon Enrichment
Our optional afternoon enrichment program enhances the fun your children have had all morning and extends until 3:30 p.m. Afternoon Enrichment campers enjoy an array of enrichment activities, music appreciation with Morah Ruth, and snacks. Expanding Horizon campers also enjoy gymnastics with Coach Ilyce.
