About Day Camps

Perfect for No-School Days

If school is closed and you still have to work, The Friendship Factory of Dearborn runs single-day camps on teacher training days, half days and random closures. Each day is a self-contained program with its own project, all materials included, and something to take home at pickup.

Small Groups

Parents search for one day camps in Dearborn, no school day childcare, teacher professional development day activities, half day camps for kids, and last minute care when a closure lands mid-week. Days book one at a time with no weekly commitment, which matters when a closure lands with two days notice and the drive needs to be short. For families looking for something hands-on, our Art and Craft Camps in Dearborn are a great pick for one of those single days.

Choose Your Camp

Pick the project your child loves most. Every day camp stands on its own, so a slime day and a sweets day feel completely different. Book one day or several across the term, and siblings can be placed together on request.

Painting, clay and creative crafts to take home.

Custom slime making from start to finish.

Decorate cookies, cupcakes and sweet treats.

Design bracelets and charms to keep.

Team games, puzzles and an indoor treasure hunt.

Come Prepared

What to Bring

It is one day, so there is no packing list to plan around. A bottle, a lunch and old clothes will do it.

Pack these

  • A named water bottle.
  • Lunch, or just a snack on a half day.
  • Clothes that can get messy.
  • Closed-toe shoes.

Included

  • Every material and tool for the day.
  • Aprons, coverings and cleanup.
  • A finished project at pickup.
  • Trained counselors, small groups.

Good to know

  • No weekly commitment at all.
  • Fifteen minute drop-off and pickup.
  • Allergies noted when you book.
  • Friends can be placed together.

Nothing to prepare. The day rate covers all of it.

Every Great No-School Day Starts with Great Ideas

No-school days rarely arrive with much notice. A teacher training day, a half day, a closure nobody planned for, and suddenly a Tuesday needs covering. This guide helps Dearborn parents sort a single day quickly, without committing to a whole week of camp.

Check the district calendar at the start of each term and book the dates you already know about, because the scheduled closures fill faster than the surprise ones. Single days work well as a trial run if your child has never done camp before, since there is no week-long commitment if it does not suit them. Pick a project that matches what they already like rather than something new, as one day is not long enough to warm up to an unfamiliar activity. Flag allergies or sensory needs when you book, and if your child is nervous, book a friend onto the same day. Turn up on the day and The Friendship Factory of Dearborn has the project, the materials and the staffing ready.
