Children ages 5-10 can play and learn this summer with Camp TV – a day camp experience from the comfort of your living room. Guided by head counselor and Broadway star Zachary Noah Piser, your child will learn through play, from math and science to creative writing and movement, and more!
Join the fun weekdays beginning Monday, July 19th at 12pm on Mountain Lake PBS. And stream Season 1, now on CampTV.org.
Head counselor Zach kicks off each episode with a welcome song and announces the day’s theme. This season’s themes feature Summer Celebration Day, Snow Day, Patterns Day, Inside Out Day, Favorite Animal Day, and Ocean Day, just to name a few.
Zach guides campers through activities, exploring nature, math, science, the arts, movement, storytelling, writing, and more with segments featuring educational and cultural organizations from around the nation like the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Denver Museum of Nature and Science, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Memphis Zoo, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the National Dance Institute, and more!
