Crafting Miniature Worlds, Dreaming Big in Spanish!

Join us to explore the Spanish-speaking world at our in-person summer camp for five fabulous weeks from July 7th to August 8th, 2025!

We are thrilled to announce the Summer Camp 2025 of Isabella & Ferdinand® Academia de Español™ with the special theme "Alasitas: Dreams in Miniature." This year, we have prepared a unique experience where your kids can learn Spanish while exploring Latin American culture and building their own miniature dreams.

This summer, Isabella & Ferdinand® Academia de Español™ invites you to a unique immersive experience in language and culture with the fascinating theme of Alasitas, the Bolivian festival that celebrates dreams and aspirations through the creation of miniatures. In our camp, your children will not only learn Spanish but will also explore their own goals and dreams while creating miniature worlds and enjoying recreational activities such as music, sports, and art.

In this year's camp, children will learn all about Machu Picchu and the wonders of the Andes Mountains. Through hands-on activities, they’ll bring these iconic landmarks to life by creating detailed miniature models, all while immersing themselves in Spanish language and culture!

What is the Alasitas festival?
Alasitas is a traditional Bolivian festival that celebrates abundance and dreams in miniature. Participants create small versions of their biggest wishes, like houses, food, and other objects, with the belief that these small symbols will bring them prosperity in the future. Through this tradition, children will learn about the cultural value of dreaming big and being creative, all while practicing Spanish in a fun way.
