Little Zookeeper Animal Summer Camps for Grades PreK-K
Cost: Full Day $425/ week (Mon-Fri 9-4pm) or Half Day $350/week (9-1pm)
Does your little learner love to know everything there is to know about the animals of the world? If so, this camp is for YOU! Camp Little Zookeeper is a one of our animal summer camps themes made for our PreK and Kindergarten aged campers.
During this week, campers will explore 5 of the main biomes that make up our globe and the animals that inhabit them. These biomes are: Savannas, Arctic Tundra, Aquatic, Desert, and Rainforest. The daily lessons will really lean into each biome and allow campers to feel immersed in the environment.
A few sample experiments that your camper will experience are making animal prints, creating a mason jar aquarium, building an arctic suncatcher, and so much more!
*Please note: all campers MUST be 4 years old by the start of their camp week and must be completely potty-trained.
Registration closes at 11:59pm Friday before this camp begins. For late registrations, please email us at hello@cskdallas.com. Late registration fee of $20 will apply.

Forms & Resources
Sun Screen Waiver Form
With hot summer temperatures upon us, we’d like to remind you of the extra precautions we take to make sure our campers stay cool and well hydrated. Please take a look at our FAQ page to see our procedures for keeping the kids cool! If you would like us to apply sunscreen, please fill out the waiver form and hand it in to the Camp Director on Monday morning.
Summer Camp Planner
Club SciKidz realizes that families are very busy during the summer. With multiple camps and sometimes multiple kids, it can be a real challenge planning and then getting them to all of their summer activities.
How do we stay on top of it all without going crazy!? The easiest solution, we believe, is to send all of your kids to every single week of Club SciKidz Summer Camp. With 42 unique camps, we have something for all of your kids!
However, we know that is not always practical, and that your kids have other interests as well, such as art/sports/etc… So, we have created this simple Summer Camp Planner to help you organize your summers. All you have to do is print it out and put your child’s name up top and then fill-in the rest of their Summer Camp Schedules. This is a great tool to help organize & plan your summers and hopefully give you a little more time to have some time of your own!
Medical Form
The Welcome Packet mentions an ‘Administration of Medicine Form’. If your child requires any medications during the time he/she is at the camp, please download this form and print it, fill in the required information, and bring it with the child on the first day of camp.
Welcome Packet
Getting ready for camp should be an exciting process for your entire family. Many families attend multiple camps throughout the summer. For your convenience we have posted our Welcome Packet in the form of a parent newsletter on-line in PDF format. This document covers everything from Club SciKidz policies to camp dates and security issues.
