The Learning Lamp’s preschool summer camps for ages 3, 4, and 5 are part-day sessions designed and taught by teachers certified in early childhood education. Parents will find age-appropriate topics like Summer of Seuss, Ahoy Matey, Music to Your Ears and Circus, Circus. These camps are available in Bedford, Richland, Westmont, Somerset and Jennerstown.
