Even as the country reopens, it’s clear that favorite summer activities will look a bit different from the norm.

Here to adapt to those changes while still offering fun education are the Museum of Contemporary Art North Miami and Jungle Island, which are both offering summer camps for children. Check out the details below.

A walk on the wild side in Jungle Island: Kids restless for some outdoor activity will find a perfect outlet for extra energy at Jungle Island’s Jungle Adventure Camp (pictured above).

“By the time summer rolls around, kids will be excited to get out of the house,” says Curtis Crider, president and managing director for Jungle Island. “At Jungle Island, we are making plans to ensure our campers stay safe. Expect social distancing and a number of preventive measures in place, but our Summer Adventure Camp will continue to be a blast for all those who participate.”

Camp activities for children 5 to 12 include arts and crafts, science education, animal education and water play. Campers will be kept safe with measures such as social distancing, facial coverings for counselors and regular handwashing.

When: July 6-Aug. 7; 9 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday through Friday

Rate: $175 per week or $60 daily
