Little Stars Camp

Little Stars Camps

Little Stars Full Day

Little Stars Half Day Camp is for campers 3-4 years old, and Full Day Camp is for campers 4-5 years old. Campers must be four at the program's start to attend Full Day Camp. These campers are ready to join Camp CaHiTo but still need a rest/nap period and more individualized care.

Children must be at least three years of age to attend a Little Stars Camp, and potty-trained. If your child is 5, our suggestion is as follows: if you have a five-year-old entering Kindergarten, Little Stars Camp is designed for your child. If you have a five-year-old entering 1st grade who has completed Kindergarten, he/she is eligible for our Traditional Day Camp program. If you have questions about your five-year-old’s appropriateness for either of our camps, please contact us.

Health and Safety

Camp Fire San Diego – Camp CaHiTo continues to follow guidance from federal, state, and local authorities, the American Camp Association, and public health departments at the State and County levels to keep our campers and staff populations safe and healthy. Our camper’s and staff’s safety and health are always the highest priority. We have always taken great care to develop and maintain medical practices to address various infectious diseases, both common and rare.

We will continually be updating our policy as additional COVID-19 guidance is provided. Camp Cancellations will be made following public health authorities’ guidelines and other considerations. We will follow all directives to reduce exposure at Camp and continue to update you if the public health department decides on: quarantines, Camp closures, and exclusion policies.

While Camp might look a little different this year, we hope campers find the same high-quality programming they have come to love at Camp CaHiTo.

Program

A typical day begins with all Campers meeting at their assigned Camp Sites. All Campers will be in small groups of children of the same age, with whom they will spend the entire session. The camper Staff ratio will be 3:12 for Little Stars Half-Day (ages 3-5), 2:12 for Little Stars Full Day (ages 4-5) and 2:16 for Traditional and Specialty Campers (ages 5-13). Camp CaHiTo is a “group-centered” camp – meaning that our campers have the same counselor and peer group for the camp session. Group-centered camping gives children the best opportunity to experience the powerful feeling of belonging, to make and keep new friends, and to connect with their counselors.

Campers participate in various activities, including age-appropriate games, hikes, and crafts determined by the counselors and what the group likes to do. Activities include Stem Activities, Archery, Hiking, Art and Crafts, Scavenger Hunts, and more.
