Camps & Programs
I Am Series (Ages 3-5)
Our preschool programs are designed to teach our youngest visitors about history! Step into the shoes of fascinating figures and professions with our “I Am” Programs! Designed for young learners, each session lets kids explore a different role, from historical figures to everyday heroes, by imagining themselves in that role. Through creative activities, storytelling, and hands-on experiences, children will learn about the responsibilities, challenges, and impact of each role. Whether they’re becoming a doctor, a pioneer, or a scientist for the day, these programs inspire curiosity, empathy, and a deeper understanding of the world around them.
