Memphis KidsOutAndAbout Summer Camp Newsletter April 13, 2026 |
Dear KidsOutAndAbout readers:
Here at KidsOutAndAbout.com, we love promoting summer camps as a way for kids to learn, expand their friendship circles, and have fun without the pressure of grades or consequences. Local summer camps have pulled out all the stops to ensure your kids have a great time.
After getting inspired by the camp descriptions below with programs for preschoolers through teens, head over to
our Week by Week Guide to Summer Camps and what's been posted so far for 2026. Bookmark that main portal page to get where you need to go quickly to search by date or subject. New camps are being added constantly, so check back frequently. I hope you enjoy our special-edition camp newsletter,
and that you forward it to your friends who may also be shopping for summer camps. We'll be back with your regularly-scheduled weekly newsletter on Thursday!

At Spirit Technique, we're not baby sitters — our camps are a space for our littles to explore gymnastics, ninja, trampoline and more in a safe, structured environment where they’re celebrated for who they are and encouraged to try hard things. We put safety, belonging, and progress first, we create bully-free spaces where kids can build confidence, curiosity, and resilience. Because, when school’s out, your child still deserves a place to shine!

Our mission is to focus on the individual child by using creativity and self-expression to involve, educate, and encourage the student to understand themselves and explore their world. Sunfish Children’s Theatre provides positive artistic experiences for every student using workshops, individual lessons, and quality community performances. Preschool and elementary theatre brings each child into the world of story and poetry through creative drama, character development, environment, exploration, and movement in a positive, nurturing environment. Students learn storytelling, stage movement, characterization, and basic memorization of poems, songs, and stories. Offering summer camps at St. Mary's (Summer at St. Mary's) and Grace St. Luke's (SummerFest) in 2026!
