Every few weeks, children dive into a new quest that includes hands-on activities that spark their imagination and challenge their thinking. From science experiments in “Grossology” to storytelling adventures in “Monster Expedition,” each quest encourages kids to learn, create, and grow while making friends and building confidence.

Our custom curriculum teaches essential life skills that help children thrive, problem-solve, and live great lives!
