International Kids Camp Programs

INTERNATIONAL KIDS CAMP is offered weekly at The International School of Minnesota (ISM) from June 20 through

August 12 for children ages 3-1/2 through those entering sixth grade. This camp is open to the public.

Around-the-World Fun

Experience the "flavor" of different cultures around the world as we wind our imaginary way through a variety of

Portuguese, German, Dakota, and Chinese speaking communities. Explore each culture’s unique food, sports,

songs, games, crafts, literature, and customs. With energetic camp counselors and weekly “specialists in residence”

as tour guides, we’ll spread our wings and fly off to faraway adventures. Kids Camp is guaranteed to be your

passport to a fun-filled summer with friends.
