Welcome to Forest Friends Camp! A playful, outdoorsy art camp theme filled with woodsy wonder, wild creatures, friendly gnomes, pretend campfire, and nature-inspired creativity.
With a balance of main projects and simpler “side dish” invitations, Forest Friends is designed to support meaningful creative experiences that can unfold over a week.
Perfect for summer camps, classrooms, afterschool programs, homeschool groups, or creative days at home.
What children will do:
Build cardboard tents, campfires, and woodland-inspired creations
Create nature-themed costumes, props, and imaginative play materials
Explore storytelling, pretend play, and collaborative making
Use open-ended and repurposed materials in inventive ways
Engage in creative invitations inspired by forests, creatures, camping, and outdoor exploration
Move between larger ongoing projects, side dish prompts, and art invitations
The experiences are flexible and adaptable, making them easy to use with mixed-age groups and a variety of camp or classroom settings.
20 art activities ranging from larger feature projects to smaller invitations and prompts
Variations for toddlers through tweens, ideal for multi-age groups
25 beautiful full-color pages that can be printed
Book lists, curricular connections, play ideas, and snack ideas
Easy-to-follow supply lists and setup suggestions
Morning and afternoon routines to help frame your camp day
Clear instructions, photos, and approachable guidance, no fancy materials or prep needed
Enough creative experiences to last for several weeks if you are at home
You’ll also receive beautiful photography, approachable guidance, and clear instructions designed to help you create an engaging and art-filled camp experience without complicated preparation or expensive supplies.
This guide pairs beautifully with our on-demand camp workshops. It reflects the same approach we share throughout our professional learning experiences: creating flexible structures that support creativity, independence, collaboration, and open-ended exploration.
You’ll see many of the same ideas woven throughout our workshops — thoughtfully curated materials, simple systems and routines, thematic inspiration, and creative experiences that allow children’s ideas and interests to lead the way.
You’re buying a digital product to print or view on a device. After purchase, you’ll get a PDF download link—save the file to your device; the link expires in 24 hours. If you miss it, email us, and we’ll resend it.
