MANDARIN MORNINGS &
STEM ADVENTURES
The only camp in Los Angeles where kids practice Mandarin, build hands-on STEAM projects, and stay active — all in one place.
Our summer program blends language learning, creative engineering, and movement to create an experience that is both educational and exciting. Designed for ages 5–10, our small-group environment helps children build confidence, creativity, and friendships.
Our camp runs during the late summer weeks when many LAUSD programs have already ended, making it a great option for families looking for a camp right before school starts.
Mandarin Mornings
Students practice conversational Mandarin through engaging activities and creative projects.
Activities include:
-
storytelling and role play
-
games and collaborative challenges
Bonus Back-to-School Booster

Because this camp takes place during the two weeks leading up to the start of school, we include daily reading and writing practice tied to grade level review.

Examples:
-
Students entering 1st grade review Kindergarten vocabulary
-
Students entering 2nd grade review 1st grade vocabulary
-
-
This helps children start the school year feeling confident in their Mandarin skills.

Students in this track should currently be enrolled in a Mandarin language or immersion program.
