FAQ:
- Where can I find the schedule? Can kids complete daily sessions independently? Our sessions are designed for kids to do projects independently and develop confidence through hands-on projects, experiments, games, challenges, building, and fun! *NOTE: Some children may require occasional assistance from an adult. Check out our agenda HERE.
- What supplies are necessary for the scheduled activities? Most supplies necessary for the week will arrive in your child’s Activity Box (see below), however, families should have some general supplies on hand, such as 1 paper grocery bag to store projects, scissors, paper, markers, crayons, pencils, tape, and glue. A few perishable items (TBA) will be necessary for our “cooking class.”
- When will I receive my Activity Box? Your child’s material box will be mailed June 24 to ensure on-time arrival. The box will include most items necessary for the week (see exclusions in the previous question). Please do not open the box when it arrives. We will have an unboxing ceremony together, details to come.
- Can I view sessions later? We are excited to bring you the opportunity to connect LIVE via Zoom with your program leader for all Adventure Week sessions. Sessions will not be available on-demand.
