Save the Dates!

With almost 20 countries represented between Central and South America, your child will experience two weeks of exploration, learning, fun activities and intriguing field trips that will captivate and educate young minds as well as create a space for cultural awareness and creativity!

We will learn the importance of certain cultural practices, the different kinds of food the people of this region enjoy, and the large assortment of art, music, games, and literature that are part of the threads that binds these countries together, yet display the extent of their own distinctiveness.

We will….

…Share and eat a lot of foods and recipes, such as tortillas, cornbread, and chocolate.
…Learn how to tango
…Look, touch, and learn of different animals of the rainforest
…Witness the Museum of Fine Arts Collections on the Americas
…Learn the official language of Spanish America

Plus each day includes crafts, music, storytelling and games.
