DOWNTOWN SPECIALTY CAMPS BACK PORCH ART: COMMOTION IN THE OCEAN
LITTLE LOTUS YOGA CAMP Little Lotus Yoga summer camp offers children a nurturing environment to grow into their own practice of yoga and mindfulness. Interactive story-telling, games, music, art, healthy snacks, and imaginative play are woven throughout the afternoon to create a child-inspired yoga experience that is both enriching and FUN! Each day we’ll explore different “themes” through yoga; from celebrating our unique, individual selves to learning about the greater world that we all share. The week ends with a dip in the Pineapple Fountain and a yoga class for families and caregivers led by the campers!
“I like the ocean. I like the sea. Come paint a pufferfish, jellyfish, mermaid/merman, shark tooth and manatee with me!” Campers will paint on canvas and a large wooden shark tooth this week.
