A Different Storytime Experience!


At Storytime Explorers Camp, children will explore stories with Professor Watermelon. Each day will have a different theme and start with a story our campers engage with through puppets, songs, and dancing.

The campers then create their own stories through imaginative play and art, guided by Professor Watermelon and using the real-life storybook setting of the James Whitcomb Riley Museum Home and gardens as inspiration. The unique setting adds a touch of magic to this memorable summer camp experience.
