Virtual Summer Camp from Guidepost Montessori: ART IN ACTION, June 6-10, 2022


*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 06/10/2022
ART IN ACTION: Art has a misconception as something that is predominately experienced through sight. While some of the great masterpieces of the world are paintings and photographs, there are so many other areas in the spectrum of art that appeal to the rest of our senses. This isn’t your typical arts and crafts – this is art in action! Clay impressions, flexagons, animated flip books, and clock making are just some of the activities that intersect creativity with sensorial experiences. Camp is held Monday - Friday as half-day programming available in two time zones: 9:00-12:00pm EST / 9:30-12:30pm PST. Families will need to source some general household products and supplies; we share a materials list in advance. Pricing: $150/week not including supplies and materials.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

What makes a summer camp "Montessori"?

This summer camp has been designed with the Montessori approach to education in mind:

  • Freedom of choice — Students can work on projects freely can move from activity to activity on their own terms
  • A child-centered approach that encourages independent exploration — Children feel empowered by freedom of choice, and so pursue work that fascinates them. This helps the child develop concentration, willpower and independence
  • Experiential learning — Children learn best by doing things for themselves, so the summer camp program offers lots of opportunities for children to work with their hands
  • Faith that the child wants to learn — Montessori educators believe that children are happiest when they have the option to work on something meaningful, which is why summer camp places a strong emphasis on connecting themes to meaningful stories rooted in historic or cultural context
