Our first field trip to help build our tribe landed us in the bay 🌊🚣☀️

Our learners worked with a studio mate to kayak through tough waters and winds to make it successfully to their destination… and back!

We love seeing these heroes test out their strength and endurance. And we love to see them deepen friendships and connections while building resiliency through hard work and dedication.

Super impressed by all of these kids, can’t wait to see what else they accomplish this school year!

It was loud. It was exciting. It was learning disguised as fun! 👩🏽‍🔬🧑🏼‍🔬

This high energy STEM camp brought science to lift through hands-on experiments, engineering challenges inspiring creative problem solving. Think bubble reactions, slime labs, bridge-building and invention competitions! 🧪

Science is so fun, especially with your friends! 🤩

Blast off into curiosity 🚀

This week of camp was all about the mysteries of space— planets, rockets, black holes, and beyond! Campers designed and build model rockets, conducted gravity, experiments, and simulated space missions.

They really got to see themselves at scientists, astronauts, and space explorers 🪐🔭

Our campers spent the third week of summer camp traveling the globe through art 🌎🎨

Each day they traveled to a new country, discovered culture through hands-on creative projects. They learned through storytelling, experimented with techniques and materials and even presented their art to each other in a showcase 🖼️

Every hero has a story. What’s yours? 🦸🏽‍♀️🦸🏻

In our second week, our campers designed their superhero identity — from powers and costumes to origin stories and missions. Through obstacle courses, teamwork challenges, creative writing and art projects, our campers discovered that their great superpower might just be courage or kindness or leadership or resilience.

Real confidence was built this week as our canpers blended imagination and character development through lots of play!

Our first week of summer camps —> where little chefs became big creators 🧑🏼‍🍳👩🏽‍🍳

This hands-on culinary camp invited young chefs into the kitchen to mix, measure, experiment, and create delicious dishes. Campers explored flavors from around the world while building confidence and independence.

Conflict happens, in the studio and in real life.
Instead of stepping in as referees, handing out punishments, or forcing a fake “say you’re sorry,” we teach our learners how to sit at the Peace Table and solve problems peer-to-peer.

At our Zone 1 Guide Gathering, our Founders and Guides spent time modeling these exact moments, roleplaying arguments, practicing neutral facilitation, and sharpening our skills so we can guide our learners toward real emotional intelligence.

Teaching kids how to navigate disagreement with respect, honesty, and grace? That’s a superpower that lasts way beyond the classroom. 🌿✨
