WeeGee's Summer Camps

In June, WeeGee organizes week-long day camps intended for children aged 7–10. Participation requires that the child has completed the first year of school.

The content of the camps is based on the exhibition content of Tapiola's museums and they are introduced from different perspectives through experiencing and doing. The important thing is the we-spirit and the joy of success.

The camp program takes place on weekdays between 9 am and 4 pm in June, during weeks 23, 24 and 25. The price of a camp week is €200, except for a 4-day week €175 (week 25), prices include VAT 24%. The price of the camp week includes the guided activity, materials and daily lunch and snack.

The camps are produced by Espoo's Event and Cultural Services todether with WeeGee's museums and partners.

Camp day at EMMA: Taikapaikka – Magic Place
What would a starfish’s living room look like? Or a piece of space? On the summer camp day at Emma, we explore different spaces and build ourselves magical mini-spaces.  

Thursday

Morning at Leikki – The Museum of Play
In the museum of play, we dive into the wonderful world of stories and – play! We will also get to know a magical forest with mythical creatures and build fascinating fantasy worlds in the workshop. 

Afternoon at the Finnish Museum of Horology and Jewellery Kruunu: Taikalaatikko – Magic Box
The Finnish Museum of Horology and Jewellery Kruunu takes us into a magical world of jewellery and watches. We get to write a story and immortalize it in a wooden box. The Magic Box will be completed during the WeeGee summer camps with the help of all the campers. What will the final story and the world it takes place in be like?
