Who doesn’t love a great Pixar or Disney movie? Did you know that the Lion King movie projects an important message of friendship and hope? There is so much to learn when examining movies’ underlying messages and the songs associated with blockbuster films. Campers will have fun growing skills through Disney/Pixar STEAM-inspired reading, writing, math, art, music, and social skills activities. Theater Day (a Disney/Pixar movie with popcorn) will occur on the last day of each camp session. Miriam’s specialty camps are perfect for students entering grades K-12 who need a fun way to boost academic or social skills during the summer months. Small groups, research-based programming, and experienced certified/licensed staff make for a winning combination.
