This camp will help foster self-awareness in children as they get to know themselves and realize their interconnectedness with all. Children will practice mindfulness in nature and learn to identify their feelings. They will learn a little about how the brain functions and ways to gain greater self-regulation when experiencing strong emotions. There will also be plenty of time for imaginative and active play in nature, vital for healthy minds.
