Camp Marco Polo: The Silk Road Meets the City of Water

Thank you for your interest in Camp Marco Polo's Virtual program. The activities such as baking are optional supplemental activities beyond the core program. There are 3 1-hr online sessions that are supervised with a student-teacher ratio of 6-8 max. The first hour involves storytelling/history of Silk Road, Marco Polo's life, etc. Then there is a 1-hour offline break with suggested optional activities related to the theme of the week - sometimes outdoors in the back yard, if available/accessible to families. The next hour online is a guided arts/crafts project. Children 8+ should be able to do these independently. However, younger children between the ages of 5-7 may need help, depending on their abilities. Activities may involve cutting, gluing, tracing, drawing, coloring, etc. The second offline hour is a lunch break. This is the time when food/cooking projects would be suggested as an option, though not all involve cooking. The final online hour is a guided music lesson, including singing, introduction of recorder as well as some music history related to the theme of the week. The next available week is that of July 27, with the theme of China. However, if interested, we need you to register today so that we may be able to mail supplies to you in time. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Hope your child will be able to join our next Caravan of Learning on an Unforgettable Journey of the Imagination! -
