_Join us for a whole new way to experience summer camp during a decidedly different sort of summer. The TFK team has created and curated daily roundups of free, kid-safe content that parents can trust and kids can enjoy on their own, or with minimal oversight. Campers will explore arts and crafts, sports and games, performance skills, scientific concepts, and the elements of storytelling—all in the safety of your base camp: home._

_Activities can be accessed below. Each week includes five days’ worth of activities, plus a “trunk list” of any supplies needed. (We’ve limited the necessity of purchasing supplies; most items will probably be in your home already.) We recommend that you_ [_sign up_](http://cloud.newsletters.time.com/camp-tfk?source=article) _using the widget at the bottom of the page.
