Plan ahead for your child's Christmas Holiday! Enhancing our tradition, Reptilia has a great Christmas camp this year, for your camper ages 4-12. Reptilia offers a safe, exciting and unforgettable Christmas experience, where your camper can learn about science related activities and enjoy all kinds of winter fun at the same time.

Our campers enjoy different daily activities including zoo tours, reptile related events, unique and interesting arts & crafts, games, movies, role-plays, and a chance to perform in our theatre.

Our camp counsellors make full use of our 25,000 square foot facility which to date is used by more than 3,000 schools and daycares in the GTA, to provide a safe and stimulating environment in which your camper will enjoy themselves, meet other camper friends, and learn about nature and the ecology.

Reptilia's goals for your camper are simple – your camper will enjoy several of the many courses Reptilia has developed to entertain and to make learning fun.

We will expand your camper's mind, give them hands on experiences, and have them remember this Christmas camp as the best one they have ever attended!!

We provide a safe, fun, and creative learning environment where campers learn about nature through interacting with our reptiles. Reptiles are the ‘vehicle’ we use to teach students throughout Ontario in the ‘Life Strands’ section of the Ontario Education Ministry’s Science and Technology Curriculum.

For most campers, one of the most exciting parts of Christmas camp is the hands on experiences with small harmless reptiles.

We are very aware of the fear that some campers may have of one or more types of reptiles, and we never attempt to have any camper do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable. Each camper decides on their level of participation and whether or not to handle any reptile they may feel a bit uncomfortable with. Funny thing is though, by the end of the week, the most fearful campers are often first in line to help with cleaning, care and feeding of the reptile they feared the most just a few days ago.

The campers are divided into 3 different groups which are:

Each group will take part in age-appropriate Christmas camp activities including:

If someone other than yourself is picking up your camper, they must be pre-registered by you in person with their driver’s license, which will be photocopied and placed in your file.

Very Important: Your camper will not be released to anyone unless their Driver’s License is on file accompanied by your written permission (done by our front desk at the time of booking or on the first day of camp) permitting them to pick up your camper. Please arrange to have this done prior to camp, as we do not deviate from this rule, as our emphasis is always on the importance of ensuring your camper’s complete safety.
