2021 Summer Camp Spotlight: Roo’s World

Editor’s note: Roo’s World is a paid sponsor in the featured section of our 2021 Northwest Arkansas Summer Camps & Activities Guide. This story offers additional information about Roo’s summer camps as well as contact info.

Roo’s World, in Rogers, offers after-school care during the school year and summer camp fun in the summer. The owner, Jerusha (Roo) Winchester, created a proprietary “ROO-OLOGY” curriculum for children 5 and up. Roo’s World focuses primarily on developing the social-emotional skill sets of individuals and teaching strong executive functioning skills.

There are many opportunities for these skills to be learned and practiced through creative “hands on” learning experiences and adventurous field trips each week. Summer day camps for kids in kindergarten and up are packed with exploration. Outings are designed with fun and educational activities that will keep a child learning, exploring, and physically active during the summer months. Certified teachers on staff. Full and part-time availability. Contact-less registration for parental convenience. Visit the Roo’s World Summer Camp page to what kinds of field trips the kids have taken.

The Roo’s World Philosophy:

“Young children have lively minds from the start. We strive to make the most of this natural quality by enabling them to experience, investigate, care about others, interact, develop and create. We strive to deepen and strengthen children’s natural abilities by providing them with the healthiest environment possible. Every child & adult has amazing value and we all have unique gifts to share with the world! Our job is to assist in developing that in both!
