SUMMER AFFIMATIONS CAMPS
Our Summer Affirmation Camp is a six-week program designed to promote your child's growth and development around literacy, self-awareness, and physical wellness. The goal of this program is to create a safe and exciting environment that stimulates and empowers young minds. Each week is designed to spark creativity and help young minds grow while exploring different parts of a S.T.E.A.M. curriculum. Days will be filled with learning-based activities and exercises that energize and restore young people’s brains and bodies. A meaningful summer experience can have great benefits to your child’s social skills, and general mental and physical health.
