🧧 What We Offer
🎍 Interactive Language Adventures

Children will explore beloved tales and traditions, while learning practical festive phrases and expressions in Mandarin. Each day’s lesson blends language immersion with laughter, movement, and hands-on activities.
🧨 Authentic Chinese Cultural Activities
Children will immerse themselves in rich cultural traditions through creative, meaningful projects. Some examples:
书法 (Calligraphy): Write auspicious couplets like “福到人间” and “春满乾坤” on red paper to welcome good luck.
剪纸 (Paper Cutting): Craft zodiac animals, “福” symbols, and traditional window flowers.
灯笼制作 (Lantern Making): Build and decorate lanterns to light up the new year.
红包手工 (Red Envelope Design): Make personalized red envelopes to exchange with friends.
舞龙体验 (Mini Dragon Dance): Celebrate teamwork and rhythm with a joyful dragon parade!
🍜 Hands-On Holiday Cooking
Our young chefs will create dishes that embody the flavors and blessings of the New Year. Some examples:
糖葫芦 (Candied Fresh Fruits) - typical winter snacks for kids to improve appetite and help digestion
馄饨 (Wontons) - nutritious and warm comfort food with a balanced filling
春卷 (Spring Rolls) – golden rolls symbolizing wealth and fortune
汤圆 (Sweet Rice Balls) – soft and sweet, representing family togetherness
长寿面 (Longevity Noodles) – long noodles for a long, happy life
Each recipe is taught with corresponding Chinese vocabulary, storytelling, and sensory fun!
🎨 Creative Arts & Sensory Projects
Campers will blend art, symbolism, and imagination to celebrate renewal and good fortune, some examples:
🧨 Firecracker Garlands (爆竹挂饰): Using red paper rolls and strings, students craft safe, decorative “firecrackers” that symbolize chasing away bad luck.
🌸 Plum Blossom Ink Painting (梅花国画): Learn brush-painting techniques to paint the “Four Gentlemen” flowers — especially plum blossoms, a symbol of hope and resilience in winter.
🐟 “年年有余” Fish Art (剪纸鱼): Create red paper fish or textured fish mosaics inspired by the saying “年年有余” (“May you have abundance year after year”).
🪶 Chinese Zodiac Shadow Puppets (皮影戏): Build translucent paper puppets and act out New Year legends under lantern light.
