Rye Reads Learning Center offers camps that are fun and educational. Children learn through play as they strengthen their life skills in an interactive, supervised environment. Summer is a great time to expand your child’s knowledge of familiar topics or explore new ones! Each week of our Summer Camp focuses on a different theme to keep our campers engaged and happy to return! Summer Camp groups are organized by age – toddlers, 2s, 3/4 or aged 5/6. Summer Camp is located at our two downtown Rye locations 30 Elm Place and 43 Theodore Fremd. Pick your week, then your preferred time session.
