Treat Yourself Week

---

Welcome to Treat Yourself Week Camp, a fun-filled journey blending culinary arts, creativity, and mindful living. This immersive week will inspire kids to explore new flavors, learn valuable life skills, and express their creativity, all while staying true to our yoga lifestyle. Each day is thoughtfully designed to include hands-on cooking, artistic projects, and mindful practices to fill the day with engaging activities from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Monday kicks off with "Charcuterie with Me," where campers will explore the art of creating beautiful charcuterie boards. They’ll learn how to pair cheeses, meats, fruits, and crackers while discussing flavors and textures. In the afternoon, kids will design their own menus using creative calligraphy and illustrations, then participate in a mindful eating session to fully appreciate the sensory experience of their culinary masterpieces.

Tuesday brings a taste of Paris with "French Flair Day." Campers will dive into French cuisine by making savory and sweet crepes and crafting a traditional Niçoise salad. They’ll also learn basic French phrases related to food and dining, followed by a fun art activity to paint café scenes or create Parisian-style menu boards. To top it off, campers will torch the tops of their own crème brûlées for a sweet and sophisticated treat.

Wednesday heats up with "Taco Fiesta." Teams will prepare delicious street tacos, quesadillas, fresh salsa, and guacamole in a hands-on culinary challenge. In the afternoon, campers will decorate taco-themed aprons or build their own "Taco Truck" dioramas. They’ll also explore Ayurvedic principles, learning the benefits of fresh herbs and mindful preparation, and engage in improv games, acting out scenes inspired by a bustling taco market.

Thursday’s "Yoga Flows and Sushi Rolls" combines movement with culinary artistry. The day begins with a serene yoga flow session focused on balance and mindfulness, leading into a sushi-making workshop where campers craft individual rolls and team platters. In the afternoon, they’ll create unique dipping sauces in a pairing challenge and share imaginative origin stories of their sushi creations in a fun theater activity.

Friday concludes with "Pizza and Etiquette Adventure," starting with a pizza-making workshop where campers become pizza artisans, crafting their personal pies with fresh dough and toppings. The afternoon features a special field trip to a local restaurant for an etiquette class, where kids will practice fine dining skills and social grace. The day wraps up with a reflective art activity, where they capture their favorite moments from the week through journaling or sketching.

Throughout the week, campers will also enjoy sweet and savory afternoon activities, like a professional cake decorating workshop with fondant, chocolate dipping stations, and candy-making sessions such as Hay Stacks. Teamwork and creativity shine during challenges like a Soup and Salad Cook-Off or a Mystery Ingredient Challenge. Each morning begins with yoga or mindfulness to set the tone for a day filled with discovery and joy.

The week ends with a Taste and Talent Showcase, where campers proudly display their creations, share their artistic menus, and perform improv skits inspired by the week’s adventures. Treat Yourself Week Camp is the perfect mix of fun, sophistication, and mindful living, offering your child an unforgettable experience.
