Our team at TaleTree understands the value of creativity in all aspects of a child’s development. Creativity heightens not only artistic intelligence but also others such as logical, emotional, spatial, kinesthetic, naturalistic, and inter/intrapersonal intelligences (Further detailed in research by developmental psychologist Howard Gardner). By paying attention and responding to even the simplest of thoughts that children share, we reinforce the growth of all kinds of genius thoughts. 

At TaleTree’s Creative Camp, our trained moderators provide ‘challenges’ in an effort to stimulate creativity in all forms. Some kids choose to respond with poetry and comic strips while others may respond with cardboard castles or stop-motion videos. The freedom to explore the wackiest, brightest ideas, and to approach one another’s creativity with empathy is crucial in a child’s development and at the helm of TaleTree’s mission.

Give kids the power to grow through peer-guided conversations, where noticing the smallest of details and constructively inquiring about them reinforces the joy of exploring creativity without limitations. Instill the value of interpersonal relationships through our camp where kids can celebrate and strengthen their trust, respect, and inspiration not only as individual geniuses but also as a collective of bright minds. TaleTree ensures a culture of positivity and boundless support for our camp members. Come celebrate the joy of creativity with us!
