Your Child's Journey Awaits...

A Hero's Journey: A 4-Day Summer Camp Experience

The hero's path is not always an easy one - it challenges you to learn new skills, step outside your comfort zone, and become something greater than you once were. Every one of us has a hero inside; this camp is all about bringing these inner gifts to the surface and sharing them with the world!​

​

Throughout the week, your student will improve their ability in the skills that every hero needs to succeed:

  • Resilience

  • Empathy

  • Adaptability

  • Character

  • Health​

​

... all while learning and practicing the key executive function skills that form the foundation for everything worth doing in life - organization, time management, logical thinking and mental processing (especially under pressure), self-awareness and emotional intelligence, and working memory.

​

The week will be filled with challenges and learning, but it won't feel like boring work. Young heroes learn best through play, so while ​this journey will test their limits and give them valuable lifelong tools for success, it will also be FUN! Each day will include games, group activities, and open-ended discussions designed to get campers thinking about their purpose, their mission in life, and what kind of hero they want to be.

The Path of Our Journey...

Day 1: The Call to Adventure

Theme: Character & Health · Who are you right now, and what are you capable of?
 

Before any hero can grow, they have to see themselves clearly. On Day 1, campers get their bearings as individuals and as a group.

 

Campers will:

  • Create their own community agreements and set the tone for how they'll hold themselves and treat each other all week

  • Review the hero's journey framework and what it means to be on the hero's path

  • Start mapping their emotional landscape... what sets them off, where they feel it in their body, and what that might be telling them

  • Close the day with an important question: what is calling you to grow now?​

Day 2: Crossing the Threshold

Theme: Adaptability & Resilience · Saying yes to hard things takes courage and commitment.

 

The threshold is the moment a hero stops waiting and steps forward to do what is right. Day 2 is about what that actually requires... and what gets in the way.

​

Campers will:

  • Explore what resilience really means: not toughness, but the ability to keep going even when things are hard

  • Practice recognizing and responding to inner stress and frustration before the feelings take over

  • Take on exciting challenges that put their mental/emotional grit to the test

  • Leave with concrete tools for resetting when they're overwhelmed​

Day 3: Tests, Allies & Enemies

Theme: Empathy & Adaptability · Who do you turn to when life gets challenging (and who can turn to you)? ​

​

No hero can do it all alone; it's important to know how to form and keep healthy relationships. Day 3 turns the lens outward, toward the people around them.

​

Campers will:

  • Practice active listening, perspective-taking, and being able to accept someone else's experience, even if it doesn't match their own

  • Complete a team challenge designed so that solo effort on its own isn't enough

  • Explore the difference between healthy competition and using people as a ladder

  • Practice navigating conflict productively, without blowing up or shutting down

Day 4: The Ordeal & Return

Theme: Character, Empathy, & Health · How do you respond to challenge and pressure, and what is the inner elixir you will carry back with you?

 

The final day is the culmination of everything gained so far. Campers combine everything they've practiced over the week and step into who they're becoming.

 

Campers will:

  • Reflect on who they were on Day 1 vs. who showed up by Day 4

  • Face the week's central challenge: a high-energy activity that demands regulation, teamwork, and flexible thinking all at once

  • Draft and share their personal "elixir statement" - what they discovered about themselves this week, and what wisdom they will bring back to share with others

  • Share what they've learned with each other and celebrate the completion of camp

7 EF Skills

The 7 Skills We Build

This camp experience (and our 1-1 coaching programs) are built around seven important executive function skills. These are the mental and emotional tools that help kids manage themselves, their emotions, and the world around them:

Self-Monitoring

Knowing what you're doing while you're doing it, and catching yourself before a small problem becomes a big one.

​​

Working Memory

Holding onto important information while you're in the middle of something, so you don't lose the thread when things get busy or stressful.

​

Goal Setting

Turning "I want to do better" into an actual plan, and sticking with it even when it gets hard.

​

Organizing & Prioritizing

Knowing what to do first when everything feels urgent, and managing time without constant reminders.

​

Emotional Regulation

Recognizing what you're feeling, understanding what set it off, and knowing what to do with it before it takes over.

​

Somatic Regulation

Reading the signals your body sends when you're stressed or overwhelmed, and using breath and movement to reset.

​

Cognitive Flexibility

Changing course when the plan breaks, seeing things from someone else's point of view, and staying calm when things feel uncertain.
