The emphasis will be on daily cooking projects, learning about plants, life cycles, composting, backyard insects and animals and garden fun. This camp includes lunch that the children prepare each day.

Children will experience Asian culture and be surrounded by Chinese language in this camp. The camp will be mostly immersion with games, songs and practice with conversational Chinese in the Montessori classroom setting.
