Blessing for the Snake Year|1-Day Winter Camp for Children

Welcome the Year of the Snake with Abundant Blessings! 

This winter, join us on an exciting adventure as we journey through the tranquil winter forest and explore the mysterious world of reptiles! As we welcome the Year of the Snake, our Chinese New Year Winter Day Camp offers children a unique opportunity to understand this wise and agile zodiac symbol through educational and creative activities. Participants will immerse themselves in the natural environment, learning about snakes' habitats, behaviours, and their cultural significance. Through interactive games and themed treasure hunts, children will not only develop a caring heart for wildlife but also experience the cultural essence of Chinese New Year.
