Embark on a delectable journey with our “Culinary Creations” camp, a unique thematic unit designed for children who have a passion for cooking and a curiosity about different cultures. This camp offers a delightful blend of culinary arts and French language immersion, allowing campers to explore and prepare a variety of dishes from French-speaking countries around the world, all while enhancing their French language skills.

Exploring Francophone Cuisine: Each day, our young chefs will ‘travel’ to a different French-speaking region, from the charming countryside of France to the spice-filled markets of Morocco, the vibrant streets of Vietnam, and the tropical islands of the Caribbean. They will discover the unique flavors and culinary traditions of these diverse cultures, learning how French influence has melded with local ingredients and techniques.

French Language Immersion Through Cooking: As campers engage in preparing dishes, they will naturally learn and practice French. Our activities are designed to introduce French vocabulary related to cooking, ingredients, and culinary techniques. This immersive approach makes learning French enjoyable and relevant to their culinary adventures.

Hands-On Culinary Activities: “Culinary Creations” offers a variety of hands-on culinary experiences, specially designed for safety and simplicity, as we will not be using heat or cooking in a kitchen. Campers will engage in preparing simple, kid-friendly, no-cook recipes from various Francophone countries. They might assemble delightful French tartines (open-faced sandwiches), whip up a zesty Moroccan couscous salad, or create fresh Vietnamese spring rolls with pre-prepared ingredients. These activities are perfect for young chefs to explore the art of assembling and presenting food, enhancing their culinary skills while deepening their appreciation for global culinary traditions.

Learning About Food and Culture: Campers will be introduced to the cultural significance of the dishes they create. Through storytelling and interactive discussions, they will learn about the history of these foods, the regions they come from, and the role they play in local customs and celebrations.

Interactive and Educational Experience: Our camp is designed to be both interactive and educational. In addition to cooking, campers will engage in food-related games, crafts, and language activities that enhance their overall experience and deepen their cultural understanding.

Cultural Appreciation and Global Perspectives: “Culinary Creations” aims to foster an appreciation for the diversity of Francophone cuisine. Campers will develop a broader understanding of how food connects us to different cultures and traditions, promoting a sense of global citizenship and culinary curiosity.
