Myth & Earth Explorers Camp
with Kiya Johnson
Ages: 10 - 14
Myth & Earth Explorers is a hands-on camp where campers combine archaeology, history, mythology, art, science, and culinary exploration. Each day begins with outdoor investigations, including simulated excavations, soil and water sampling, and the study of rocks, fossils, and landscapes to understand ancient environments. In history and mythology sessions, campers learn about civilizations from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and Medieval eras, exploring myths, gods, and legendary figures. These lessons are reinforced through art projects, such as clay modeling, pottery, manuscript-style illustrations, and eco-friendly crafts inspired by the cultures studied. Culinary activities bring history to life, with campers preparing era-specific dishes, learning traditional ingredients, cooking methods, and food science principles. Team challenges and daily showcases integrate all elements, allowing campers to present experiments, artwork, myth-inspired stories, and historical dishes. This interdisciplinary approach encourages creativity, problem-solving, and a deep understanding of the natural, cultural, and mythical worlds.
