Connection with Nature + self

Explore the world around us and discover our deep connection to the earth. We are not separate from the natural world but rather an integral co-creator of it all.

Campers engage in guided hikes, nature scavenger hunts, free play outdoors, and more.

bring play into each moment

Children see the endless possibility in everything and observe the world around them in wonder. Blue Sky camps engages in the magic of play through unstructured and open-ended outdoor time. Games are invented, forts built, art created, and suddenly what is dreamed is birthed into the physical.

A variety of workshops are offered throughout camp to build new skills and express one’s self creatively.

to spark curiosity + honor creative expression

Each of us carries an eternal flame, a spiritual essence within us. When we connect and create from that space we shift our reality and the world around us. Children naturally see through eyes that have yet to be tempered by limiting beliefs. When their curiosity is nurtured and their observations of themselves and their environment are given space, children anchor their inner knowing and develop deep rooted confidence and compassion—for themselves and others.

 Nature Immersion: Each day begins with guided nature hikes, allowing campers to explore the beauty of the wilderness. Kids will learn about local flora and fauna, fostering a deep appreciation for the environment and encouraging stewardship of the earth.

Mindful Moments: Our meditation sessions are designed to help children cultivate mindfulness and emotional awareness. Guided by experienced instructors, campers will practice breathing exercises, visualization techniques, and grounding activities that promote relaxation and self-discovery.

Creative Expression: Through art, storytelling, and journaling, campers will express their thoughts and feelings inspired by their surroundings. Nature crafts, such as leaf prints and stone painting, will encourage creativity while connecting them to the essence of the world around them

Spiritual Development Workshops: Led by skilled facilitators, these workshops will introduce children to age-appropriate concepts of spirituality and self-reflection. Activities may include gratitude circles, intention-setting exercises, and discussions on kindness and empathy, helping campers to cultivate a sense of inner peace and connection to others.

Team-Building Adventures: Through fun group activities like scavenger hunts, obstacle courses, and cooperative games, campers will develop teamwork and communication skills while building lasting friendships in a supportive and nurturing environment.

Closing Campfire: at the close of the week, campers will gather around a cozy campfire to share stories, sing songs, and reflect on their experiences. This communal time fosters a sense of belonging and community, allowing children to bond with their peers in a meaningful way.

i am capable

Children are born with the spark of the divine housed in them. Their eagerness to learn and develop only needs to be encouraged and witnessed. At Blue Sky camps we know that children are both the student and the teacher and we can learn from each other. During this week activities will encourage confidence in innate abilities. A variety of skills-based learning opportunities will be offered from candle-making and bread baking to building and crafts.

This is the perfect space for the child who wants to learn something new, be challenged, and leave camp with the confidence that only comes when we realize our own talents and abilities.

i am connected

In a culture that is driven by all things digital and lacks deep human interaction, this week of camp will remind children that they are part of a collective much bigger than themselves. Through nature-based play they will remember they are one with the earth. There will be daily hikes, outdoor play, and gardening together. Practices that focus on collaboration and teamwork help kids learn to work together and discover the beauty of community.

This week is very nature focused as we explore all the ways that we are not separate from the earth, but intimately in partnership with her.

i am creative

Every human is creative and at Blue Sky Camps we know that each of us has a special purpose on earth. When we co-create our reality we discover how limitless the world truly is. This limitlessness goes far beyond just a societal statement that you can “be whatever you want”, this invites a child to connect first with their inner knowing so they can experience the boundless joy that comes from connecting to themselves.

This week of camp will be focused on expressing ourselves through music, art, water color, and projects that give freedom to just be.
