Campers will step into a magic realm of imaginative quests, forest hideouts, and nature-crafted treasures.
Your child will have an enchanting week in nature at Mythical Creatures Day Camp! This whimsical program invites young adventurers to explore the outdoors through imaginative play, hands-on discovery, and guided quests inspired by mystical beings said to roam the land.
At Mythical Creatures, the forest becomes a realm alive with stories and imagination. Our adventures use mythical creatures to teach real ecology, tracking skills, wildlife awareness, and plant knowledge. From studying the flight patterns of a phoenix to tracking unicorns, observing the clues left by their closest real world relatives, nature becomes a world of personality and learning becomes an unforgettable quest. Campers may set out on a dragon egg hunt, design whimsical faerie houses, craft mystical artifacts from natural materials, or try to catch a mischievous gnome hidden along winding woodland paths. Each day invites them into story-driven quests that encourage them to move, think, and explore like the mythical creatures they love.

- Creative, imaginative play in a forest filled with mythical lore
