FAQs

We always have a blast at camp!  Here are a few frequent questions parent's have had about Cool Coyote Kids Camp.

What is the drop off point?

We meet at the playground parking lot, play at the playground for a bit, and then head out on our field trip for the day.

How many children are in each camp?

The group sizes are up to 25 children with 3 adults.

How do you get to each location?

We transport the children in 15 passenger vans.


California law requires that children 8yo and under be transported in an appropriate safety seat. Please provide a seat for each child that will need one.

What should my child bring to camp?

Your child will need a head-to-toe change of clothes (including shoes), a towel, a swimsuit/shorts, a jacket, and a booster/car seat if needed.  


Children should bring a lunch, and a reusable water bottle. **Please no peanuts or peanut butter. We also ask that you please don't pack 'Lunchables'. The children are incredibly active during the day, and often remain hungry when they've had one for lunch.

We will provide snacks and have extra water along.


Cool Coyote is an electronics-free camp, please leave them at home. This includes Fitbits and Apple Watches, as we tend to find them in the sand.


Please label all of your child's things with their name.


Please apply sunscreen in the morning. We will reapply mid day.

Will my child be swimming in the ocean?

The children usually go wading in the water at the creeks or oceans we visit.

We do NOT let children go in the waves if we go to the ocean.


Please have your child wear their shorts or swim suit under their clothes. This makes it easier so we don't have to change all of the kids into their suits when we get to the beaches and creeks and they don't get their clothes wet.  We recommend sending children to camp in good walking shoes that you don't mind if they get wet.


All staff are CPR/First Aid Certified

What if it rains?

We enjoy camp rain or shine!


If it is raining we usually go hike in the redwoods to play in the rain. It's fun to splash in puddles and see the different critters that come out in the rain.


If the weather is too cold and stormy we go to La Petite Playhouse in Redwood City. Along with their play structure, we rent the party room so we can do arts and crafts.

What does a week at camp look like?

I will send out an informational e-mail the week before each camp begins. The schedule might be just a bit different than this sample week:  


Monday: We will go to Pillar Point/Mavericks to play and explore. There is a sandy beach, a big hill to climb, a rope swing and tide pools. We love this beach!

Tuesday: We will go to Stulsaft Park to play at the creek and make water slides at the playground and maybe make a rope swing in the trees.

Wednesday: We will go to Pomponio or San Gregorio state beach to play. The children have nick named these beaches "Stick Beach" because of the drift wood forts they can build.

Thursday: We will go to Huddart Park to hike through the redwoods and play along the creek. Maybe we will catch some crayfish!

Friday: We will go to Pillar Point/Mavericks to play. The children have nick named this beach "dog beach." This is one of our favorite beaches!

Who is on staff at camp?

My helpers are all mature adults that love being out in nature with the children. They have a sense of purpose helping children to be able to play, explore nature, daydream and take a break from our fast pace busy world.

All staff are CPR/First Aid Certified
