LiTTLE Buds Day Camp
This video provides a good introduction to who and what Camp Concepts is all about.
We know that our youngest campers, the "Little Buds" (ages 2-5) have an incredible curiosity and desire to explore the world around them. At Little Buds, we create unique, age-appropriate and developmentally appropriate opportunities for learning through socialization, exploration, and discovery- all core elements of our well-established program.
Selecting a summer camp program can be a challenge. Bucks County has so many choices to choose from. We believe the real value of camp extends far beyond the program or even the fun that can be had. For us, the true value of camp is the social & emotional learning that takes place. Take a minute and read this article so you have a better understanding of our fundamental approach to camp.
To meent their developmental needs, our 'Lil Buds' enjoy their own tailored day camp experience in an equally safe and nurturing enviornment. This thoughtfully balanced program encourages key social, emotional, and physical growth through fun, age-appropriate activities.

When Ashley is not having fun with Little Buds you can find her coaching girls’ softball for one of three programs in which she is actively involved.
