A unique week-long day camp experience for children in the Calgary area. This day camp at Rocky Ridge Retreat is like no other! Kids connect to nature through play, discovery, art, and movement. Each day, children are guided in yoga, meditation, mindfulness, sound healing, art, gardening, outdoor games, and stories, in addition to baking/cooking explorations in the kitchen.
Large open grasslands, rolling foothills, mountain views, a tranquil pond, a greenhouse & veggie garden, native plants, and picnic tables provide large engaging spaces for kids to be kids while connecting with nature and their true selves.
An indoor kitchen, washroom & yoga/movement/art studio are all part of this unique setting. Children who are 5 years of age and are attending with a sibling are welcome at the parents’ discretion.

What parents are saying:
My daughter had the best week at Little Souls Summer Day Camp with Amber. She loved all the different crafts and outdoor play and meeting new friends. As a Mom, it is such a relief to know your child is in good hands, enjoying each and every activity they are guided through. Amber incorporates it all-yoga, crafts, outdoor exploring and mindfulness. Looks like we will be doing this camp again! (Melissa W, Parent)
The relaxed, kind and inviting environment Amber provides for the children attending her camps is exactly what every parent hopes for when leaving their kids in the care of another. My children loved every moment spent with her and the other children in attendance. Their days were filled with exploration, creativity, self care and the freedom to just be children. I highly recommend Amber's offerings and look forward to my children enjoying many more days spent with her learning and growing! Thank you Amber! (Nadine G, Parent)
My daughter and I have both attended events with Amber at her beautiful retreat centre. I would recommend all of her offerings. The summer kids camps, the school break camps, the special classes. There is so much for the kids to do: crafts, yoga, sound bathes, harvesting fruits and veggies from the garden and turning them into delicious zucchini chocolate bread and Saskatoon lemonade. Playing with rocks and bugs. Going for a walk to the pond. It's such a peaceful and calm setting, run by a beautiful human being. Thank you Amber! I am so grateful that we found you when we did. We have already enjoyed a few years of camps and events with you, and we both look forward to our next event with you! (Pam M. Parent)
