DESCRIPTION: For kids who dare to be make tasty snacks out of paper!
Turn The GIANT Room into a cafe with the most delicious dishes. Campers will be all chefs in their cafes, experiment with new ingredients and create new dishes. They'll add dishes they like to their menus and serve it to their customers whether they're humans, animals, pets, or even tiny bugs! Each session we’ll have a virtual visit to a farm, pick fruits and vegetables, take them to our space, and create amazing dishes using arts and crafts materials, and fabrication tools. Participants learn about sources of food, engage in hands-on origami, art, and paper folding techniques to make miniature of yummy looking food from tacos, to fries, burgers, pizza, chocolate, sushi, ice cream, and more! This series is a wonderful blend of science, craft, and social skill building.
