I am pleased to invite your children to the Éden Foundation day camp, which will be held for six weeks this summer.
I believe that children need to be together and in nature.
This is how the camp was designed.
Throughout the day, there will be a series of nature-themed workshops and games, all supervised by a great team of facilitators. One of the days of the week will be themed around forest survival, and on Friday, we will have a big treasure hunt covering all the week's themes.
New features : stories and activities, miniature garden, salad shoots, yoga, wild flowers to help the bees and I am pleased to announce the addition of a greenhouse: young people will therefore be able to run from the garden to the obstacle course, then the animals and the calm of this new Zen place where they will learn through experience how to grow, care for, garden...

), you can then come and pay on site.Here are two articles on the benefits of nature for children:
- how memory and concentration skills are improved through contact with it
- Matthieu Ricard who states the disorders of the deficit of nature
Structure? Please know that we are consistent with our values and offer children great activities, but also the opportunity to be free (under close supervision of course), and that's what they appreciated most last summer. Since they have busy schedules throughout the year, we want to see them play, bond, laugh, learn a little through experience and fun, but also linger to look at an insect or feed Pépito if they want.
Price: $220 for the week
