Calgary, Alberta
TimberNook of Greater Calgary uses two beautiful and unique locations for programs. In the summer, we are hosted by Camp Jubilee in Cochrane, AB, where we have access to 80 acres of forest and grassland, as well as a lagoon. When kids play at Camp Jubilee, it feels like the whole world is theirs to explore. We are often visited by deer, eagles, and other wildlife! We also utilize Edworthy Park in the heart of Calgary for year-round programming. We've found a cozy corner of the park with a spring running through it and giant trees to inspire all sorts of magical experiences.
Overview
TimberNook of Greater Calgary offers unique, sensory-rich play experiences for children ages 0-10. We provide year-round programs for Tiny Ones (age 0-4) and Little Wild Ones (ages 4-9), as well as multiple summer camp options! We have top-notch staff delivering quality programs in two stunning locations. We provide the props and initial inspiration, and the children use their imaginations and creativity to create experiences they will never forget!

Friends in the Wild - TimberNook Tri-County
reviewed by Crisy Gowan Young
This was the best experience that I could of hoped for. My child and I were greeted every morning with enthusiasm and I when I left her there with the staff I drove away feeling great about the adventures she would have. What adventures they were!! Everyday she would get in the car and tell me stories about her day that led to great discussions and even projects at home. The staff are wonderful here and I cant wait until next year when our daughter is there again!

Our daughter loved Timbernook! It is just what we look for in an outdoor camp. Lots of open-ended and unstructured play time in the woods. Rain or shine! It's exactly what kids need.

Our children (ages 6 and 4) loved Timbernook “Friends in the Wild” camp. It was an amazing experience for them where they had the opportunity to meet new friends and use their big imaginations!

Enchanted - TimberNook Tri-County

The magic is in the mess, the discovery: the mud, rocks, water, moss, finding a toad, failing at building a bridge and trying again, the team work, the imagination, the fort building, the pretending, and doing all of the things your parents would tell you not to do because you would get too dirty. I am so glad our kiddos and so many of their friends got to partake in this magic.

Friends in the Wild - TimberNook Tri-County

My kiddos are so in LOVE with Timber Nook. It’s play the way I remember it as a kid. My sister and I would grab a bunch of stuff, inside and out of the house and create our own fun. We would make our own games and our own rules. We would use our imagination and nobody told us what to play or how to play. Timber Nook is child-centered, creative, team work, problem solving fun. It is an awesome experience for kids to be able to choose their own fun with adults that embrace all of their cool ideas and tell them to go for it! There are fun activities for the kids each day, but the direction the play takes is led by the kids.

This camp is magical. Both my eight and four-year-olds enjoyed the imaginative play and freedom to make their own choices. The theme was perfect for adventure and exploration. Thank you for a great camp experience.
