Preschool Summer Camp Highlights – Unforgettable Experiences for Your Child

At KLA Schools, we believe in education re-imagined—a dynamic, joyful first-school experience that nurtures your child’s curiosity, creativity, and innate desire to learn. Inspired by the world-renowned Reggio Emilia philosophy, hailed by Newsweek as the “best preschool approach in the world,” KLA Schools provides an innovative approach to early education—truly an education like no other.

This summer, we invite your child to embark on a Communication Adventure—a journey of exploration, discovery, and self-expression. Our four immersive sessions combine storytelling, nature, non-verbal communication, and the vibrant sounds of our city to help children uncover new ways of understanding and connecting with the world around them.

Session 1: The Art of Storytelling

Bringing Stories to Life

Children will immerse themselves in the magic of storytelling, crafting and sharing their own tales through art, drama, and creative writing. Guided by Reggio Emilia’s “hundred languages” approach, they will explore how a single story can take shape through painting, music, movement, and beyond. As their creativity unfolds, they’ll experience the joy of storytelling and the power of self-expression in new and exciting ways.

Session 2: Communication in Nature

Listening to the Messages from Nature

We bring learning into the great outdoors, immersing children in the sights, sounds, and textures of the natural world. As they explore, they’ll sharpen their observation skills, reflect on their experiences, and express their discoveries in creative ways. Through hands-on activities, they’ll develop a deeper connection to nature and uncover new ways to communicate their thoughts and feelings.

Session 3: Expressing Without Words

Discovering the Power of Non-Verbal Communication

Communication goes beyond words! Through facial expressions, body language, art, and movement, children will explore the power of non-verbal expression. This session encourages them to experiment with dance, role-play, and creative activities, helping them interpret and convey meaning without speaking. By discovering new ways to connect and communicate, they’ll build confidence in expressing themselves and engaging with the world around them.

Session 4: Sounds of the City

Exploring the Vibrant Sounds of Our City

Children will become urban explorers, tuning into the rhythm and melody of everyday life. From the hum of bustling traffic to the melodies of street musicians, they’ll capture the unique sounds of the city and transform them into creative musical and artistic expressions. By the end of this session, your child will develop a newfound appreciation for the symphony of their surroundings—enhancing their active listening skills and unlocking the creative potential of sound.

What a Day at Our Preschool Summer Camp Looks Like

Are you curious about what a typical day looks like at our Preschool Summer Camp? Each day is thoughtfully designed to encourage exploration, creativity, and fun! Here’s how our little campers spend their time:

Morning Kickoff – The Art of Storytelling and Imaginative Play

We begin the day by diving into the magic of storytelling, where books become adventures and words transform into actions. Through role-playing, puppetry, and interactive dramatization, children step into different characters, act out scenes, and even create their imaginative tales. This activity nurtures language development, creativity, and confidence in self-expression.

Outdoor Discovery – Listening to the Language of Nature

The natural world has a lot to say! Children engage with the environment through mindful listening and sensory exploration, tuning into the subtle sounds of rustling leaves, chirping birds, and the whispering breeze. This experience encourages observation skills, environmental awareness, and a deeper connection with nature.

Beyond Words – The Power of Non-Verbal Communication

Not all communication requires words! Through gestures, facial expressions, and body movement, children explore the richness of non-verbal expression, learning how to convey emotions, understand one another, and strengthen social bonds playfully and engagingly.

Urban Soundscape Adventure – Discovering the Rhythm of the City

Every city has its symphony! Children embark on an interactive listening adventure, identifying the vibrant sounds around them—from bustling streets and honking cars to distant laughter and street performers. This activity helps them tune in to their surroundings, develop auditory skills, and appreciate the unique rhythms of everyday life.

Lunchtime Socialization – Nourishment for the Body and Friendships

Mealtime is more than just eating—it’s a community experience. Children enjoy nutritious, balanced meals while conversing, sharing stories, and forming friendships. This time reinforces social skills, table manners, and communal dining joy with available allergy-friendly meal options.

Afternoon STEAM Explorations – Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math in Action

Afternoons are for hands-on learning and discovery through exciting STEAM activities. Whether conducting simple science experiments, building creative structures, or making artistic masterpieces, these projects spark curiosity, enhance problem-solving skills, and encourage hands-on world exploration.

Closing Circle – Reflection, Gratitude, and Fun Wrap-Up Activities

We wind down with a reflective group circle, where children share their favorite moments of the day, express gratitude, and engage in fun, calming activities. This daily ritual helps them process their experiences, build confidence, and end the day on a positive note, ready for another exciting day of learning and fun!
