FALL DAY CAMPS BY GRADE:

 
Pre-K – Kindergarten
“A WILD Thanksgiving!”

Come see what the keepers are cooking up this Thanksgiving for our animal ambassadors!
REGISTER NOW FOR: Monday 11/20    Tuesday 11/21    Wednesday 11/22    Friday 11/24
Campers will learn why beasts feast in the fall to prepare for the winter, and help keepers create Thanksgiving-themed enrichment for the animal ambassadors here at CMZ! We’ll use our imagination to transform the classroom into a den fit for a bear, a migration route from the North to the South, and more!
 
1st – 2nd Grade
“Fat, Fur, & Feathers”

Come learn how animals are gearing up for the winter! 
REGISTER NOW FOR: Monday 11/20    Tuesday 11/21    Wednesday 11/22    Friday 11/24
To conquer the cold, animals have astounding adaptations such as antifreeze blood, and a layer of fat that keeps body heat in like a scuba suit.
Campers will spend the day or week exploring animal adaptations and recreating them through various demonstrations and experiments.
 
3rd – 4th Grade:
“Winter (Solstice) is Coming!” 

It’s getting cold at night. Winter is coming. Come investigate how animals and plants are preparing!
REGISTER NOW FOR: Monday 11/20    Tuesday 11/21    Wednesday 11/22    Friday 11/24
How do small rodents and insects survive the cold? Do bears really sleep all winter? Why do birds fly in a V-shape when they migrate? The answer to these questions and many more will be answered as campers explore nature and observe our animal ambassadors here at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo!
Campers will take a closer look into how animals migrate (Monday), tolerate (Tuesday), hibernate (Wednesday), and/or adapt (Friday) to the changing environment around them and other natural signs that winter is coming!
