Parent Testimonial
My 6-year-old really looked forward to class each day. She enjoyed building and creating the carnival games and was independently engaged. She really liked how the instructor threaded a story and character throughout the camp experience to tie the weeklong theme together and was always curious to see what would happen next.

What You'll Do

Prepare to play at a carnival you create yourself in this weeklong class. The Galileo Carnival is in town—all that’s missing are the games! Learn paper construction and simple drawing techniques to make a new inventive, endlessly engaging amusement every day of the week.

Take a walk on the wild side with two animal-themed attractions: a silly creature cutout board for taking photos and an animal-shaped ring toss. Craft straw and paper darts to throw through a hoop target, then BE DETERMINED to test your non-pointy projectiles until they achieve a straight, accurate flight. Learn paper crafting and taping tricks as you build a one-of-a-kind ball-in-a-basket game. Wrap up your carnival collection with a fishing game, powered by magnets and embellished with appealing patterns. BE REFLECTIVE as you improve each of your inventions with rules and point systems of your own playful design.

  • Monday: Silly Photo Cutout
  • Tuesday: Ring Toss

Note: These single-day sessions offer more than just imagination-igniting activities—they’re immersive experiences full of delightful details, including interactive games, songs, snacks (see Materials, below) and more! designed to build community, bolster confidence and deliver loads of camp-away-from-camp fun.
