Multicultural Kids Camps
a fun, healthy, and engaging exploration of other cultures
About our Multicultural Camps
We believe that by experiencing aspects of different cultures in a fun and supportive environment, children will gain a different perspective which will help them develop a life-long curiosity and interest in valuing and promoting diversity and inclusion.
Our goal for the Multicultural Camps is to introduce children to different cultures represented in our communities in a fun, safe, and enquiring environment. Each Camp is led by a Cultural Ambassador; local immigrants who customize each day's activities with their own cultural heritage that can include their language, food, games, crafts, music, song, and dance.
Camp Content
Core to all our camps are hands on experience of the culture and traditions of the cultural ambassador's country. Most important is experiencing these through food, not simply tasting the food, but cooking and eating food from each camp's focus culture.
In 2023, we enjoyed learning about Taiwan, Philippines, Brazil, Korea and Ukraine...
