Winter Break Camps in Huntsville and North AL
Holiday breaks. They’re the best, right? RIGHT? So, I’m not the only one who has concerns about how I’m going to get everything done with little ones under foot the whole time? Awesome. Lucky for us, there are these things called winter break camps and they offer tons of great options for kids to have fun, learn new things, maybe make a few new friends in the process, and your happiness (and sanity) is an added bonus. Enjoy!
For more holiday fun including all the places to hear holiday music, watch holiday plays, cavort with holiday cheerfulness and just plain get in the holiday spirit visit the main page of our comprehensive 2024 Holiday Happenings Guide sponsored by Galaxy of Lights at Huntsville Botanical Gardens.
