DOWN AND DIRTY Learn about science and nature in the great outdoors

By Carol Anne Pagliotti

Nature camps are a good way to get kids away from their screens and off of the sidewalk so that they can explore the great outdoors.

Kids who go to outdoor camps gain some of the traditional wisdom their parents and grandparents learned about plants, birds and insects, including practical lessons such as how to identify poison ivy. Summer days spent in nature also connect kids to the environment and that connection can build empathy and an appreciation for the world around them.

Here in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, kids are close to natural areas where they can take part in a wide variety of nature and environmental camps.

‘Let your kids get messy and dirty’

“We’ve seen a lot of research over the last decade that suggests kids aren’t spending enough time outside,” says Courtney McKinley, camp coordinator for the Delaware Nature Society. “The amount of screen time kids have is going up and the amount of time they have outside to play is going down.”

While a kid sitting by a screen in the living room may make parents feel safe because they know where their child is, there are benefits to pushing him out the door.

“Let your kids get messy and dirty,” says Cathy Perrotto, camp coordinator for the Delaware Museum of Natural History.

“Just being outside is such a great thing for children. It allows them to explore without instructions. They can go pick up sticks and try to build something out of it.

“It’s a lot of free activity for them. It not only challenges them mentally, but physically. We hit the gamut of mental, physical and social stimulation.”

Even walking over uneven ground, like kids would do in the woods, as opposed to being on a playground with a paved surface, is really good for their gross motor development, McKinley says.

“Sometimes kids benefit the most from activities where they can just be free to roam and explore, but at camp they get to do it with an adult who is watching out for them,” says Keara R. Giannoti, executive director and director of Eco Studies at Camp Creek Run in Marlton, NJ.

CAMP

Learn lessons from nature

A summer at nature camp will help a child learn how to identify plants and animals, but the lessons go beyond ecosystems.

“The most important piece we focus on is getting kids, especially young children, comfortable with the practices of science,” says Erin McCool, director of education at Riverbend Environmental Education Center in Gladwyne, PA. “Our focus is guiding children through inquiry-based learning on how to explore nature. Kids learn how to talk and think like a scientist.”

Even kids who do not go on to be biologists and naturalists might develop an appreciation for protecting the world around them.

“We’re showing them how to take care of the forest and the soil and prevent pollution and problems in their neighborhood and watershed,” says Aaliyah Ross, director of education at Philadelphia’s Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education. “It has to do with connecting with nature and learning how to be a good environmental steward.”

Explore for the fun of it

Separate from the science and environmental awareness, one of the benefits of an outdoor camp experience is simply the chance to make a discovery.

“Kids experience and discover a lot because we want them to do things on their own; we don’t necessarily want to take them outside and lecture,” says Erin Kiefer, camp director at Woodford Cedar Run Wildlife Refuge in Medford, NJ. “We find that they really enjoy what they are doing a lot more when they are discovering it themselves.”

McKinley says the Delaware Nature Society sees a key benefit as simply the “deep experience in just being in nature.”

Parents can encourage a positive experience if they focus on finding an outdoor camp that is suited to their child, says Cailin Burmaster, program director of Whale Camp & Fundy Marine Science Institute in New Brunswick, Canada.

“This improves the likelihood that your camper will be surrounded by like-minded peers with common interests, which makes it much easier to make friends, have fun and be themselves,” she says.

GIDDYAP The Thrill and Benefits of Horseback Riding Camp

By Terri Akman As a kid, Mallory Jaskolka was very bright, but she had some learning issues that led to emotional anxiety. Her mom, Maggie, knowing that Mallory loved animals, enrolled her in Ashford Farm horseback riding camp in Miquon, PA when she was 7.

“Everything about it just fit her,” says Maggie, from Elkins Park, PA, who watched her daughter blossom around

horses. “Everything you do is part of a team, either you and your horse or you and the partner you’re sharing that horse with. It allows you to feel a sense of success. It’s really empowering.”

Mallory spent the next seven summers at Ashford Farm learning to ride and care for horses. She then advanced to their residential horseback riding camp in Virginia. Now 24, Mallory is pursuing equine-facilitated therapy as a career.

The benefits of horseback riding

Mallory Jaskolka has been horseback riding since she was 7.

Horseback riding offers riders physical activity while developing balance, coordination as well as mental and emotional benefits. It’s also an activity people can enjoy throughout their lives.

“It teaches them responsibility for another living thing,” says Caroline Canavan, owner of Ashford Farm, which offers a camp for boys and girls aged 7 to 14 who have a range of horseback-riding ability.

“Kids love animals and have a passion for riding, so it’s an outlet away from school, their telephones and their parents.

“Campers learn how to do a lot of basic flat work (walking, trotting) on the horse and they also learn how to jump,” Canav-

CAMP

an says. “The more advanced children get to take lessons out of the ring. They like to do cross-country jumping.”

Horseback riding is a unique sport where you become one with the animal, says Eleanor Robinson, owner and riding instructor at Pembrook Farm in Woodbury, NJ. “You have to think about what the horse or pony is thinking about, what it is feeling and its needs. It also gives the kids a lot of confidence when they work with the animal and love the animal. That connection is immeasurable.”

Hippotherapy at Quest Therapeutic Services

“Unlike sports and school where kids are competing against other peers, in horseback riding there’s no competition,” says Sue Campbell, owner of Sunset

Camp

Choose a camp carefully

As with any camp, a personal visit will allow you and your child to see the facilities and speak with the staff.

“Not all camps are created equal, so parents should really check the camps out,” says Canavan. “Children can get hurt so they have to have good instruction.” Horseback riding is not for everybody, she cautions, so gauge your child’s interest before committing to a camp.

While costs differ depending on the camp, campers will need proper clothing, including a helmet and riding boots or sturdy-heeled shoes. Summer camp at Ashford Farm cost from $1,300 for two weeks to $4,960 for eight weeks, while Pembrook Farm costs $250 per week.

Half-day camp at Sunset Stable costs $200 per week and $300 per week for full day.

Hippotherapy and therapeutic riding Literally meaning “treatment with the help of the horse” from the Greek word “hippos,” hippotherapy is how physical, occupational and speech therapists use the movement of the horse as part of their intervention to help achieve their objectives.

“The horse’s movement has a therapeutic effect on the child because it imparts a precise repetitive pattern of movement that’s very similar to a person’s pelvis during normal walking,” says Lisa Newcomb, executive director of Quest Therapeutic Services in West Chester, PA. “It helps with balance, strengthening the core, and sensory input.”

The goal is not to learn to ride a horse, but to use the horse’s movement as a tool. Children sit or kneel on the horse in any direction as three adults guide the horse, provide the therapy and make sure the child is safe. While on horseback, children can also participate in other activities like basketball, putting rings on poles, and working puzzles.

“We’re using the horse’s movement as that tool to facilitate the physical, speech and occupational therapy,” says Newcomb.

Therapeutic riding Unlike hippotherapy, therapeutic riding focuses on using the movement of the horse to give a recreational experience or to teach riding skills to people with disabilities, says Barbara Wertheimer, executive director of Pegasus Therapeutic Riding Academy in Northeast Philadelphia. Through that process the rider derives physical, psychological, mental and emotional therapeutic benefits.

Quest Therapeutic Services

Stable in Bear, DE. “Children who are reluctant to participate in sports feel very comfortable riding. They don’t have that outside pressure.”

“Being on the horse gives the rider the feeling of self confidence, independence, and enjoying an activity that she can call her own,” says Wertheimer.
