Click for CalendarCampers 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 turns into a realm of story and imagination. We use mythical creatures to introduce children to ecology, wildlife tracking, and plant knowledge. Campers might search for dragon eggs, craft natural artifacts, build faerie houses, or spot hidden gnomes along woodland paths. Each day brings story-driven quests that inspire children to explore nature like the creatures they love.
“My daughter came home every day bubbling with excitement about everything she’d done that day. Games, activities, songs, and plenty of time in nature! It’s a fantastic way to make summer feel like summer.”
– Lari M., mother of a 7-year-old

What Families Are Saying
“I was surprised at how enthusiastic my child was about his experience at Mythical Creatures Camp at Seward Park. He was excited to get out there every day and asked to do more WAS camps before the week was over. Usually he’s eager to get home from camp, even if he had a great time — with WAS, he wanted to stay out in nature.“
– Lauren M.
“My son wanted to come every day and liked the instructors a great deal, along with the nature activities.”
– 2026 Mythical Creatures parent
“I liked how kind the instructors are. I could tell my kid was receiving a lot of care.“
