"How do they do it?" has come from the mouths of children since the first magician uttered the words Hocus-Pocus and mystified his audience. MagiCamp® now offers the secrets of magic and illusion to children. Our program has been designed NOT ONLY to be an educational, healthy, and entertaining adventure through the mysterious world of magic, but also one that builds the character, confidence, and self-esteem of our Miami and South Florida campers. MagiCamp is an experience dedicated to bringing something that is rarely available today, the secrets backstage. Since 1989 MagiCamp has taught over 10,000 MagiCampers the many variations of magic, juggling, and drama. Under the direction of experienced counselors and teachers, the campers will be taught the basics of stage presence, drama, improv, animal balloons, and of course grand illusion. MagiCamp has become one of the premier specialty programs in the US with over 1200 children attending the MagiCamp programs each summer. The MagiCamp program has also been approved by the American Camping Association for its high quality standards and excellence in teaching and for providing a safe and exciting journey through the world of magic.For our retuirning campers our program design consist of different wand levels making each summer an opportunity for each Magicamper to learn more and perfect their skills of magic. About Jurassicamp Jurassicamp was created to bring our Miami and South Florida campers ages 5-10 into the wondrous world of Dinosaurs & Fossils (Paleontology). While the Jurassi-campers are learning about the many species of dinosaurs and prehistoric life, they will actually receive real fossils to keep from the periods such as dinosaur bone fragments, Trilobites, and Ammonites. These fossils will actually be found by digging in our specially designed dig boxes. The Jurassicampers will also learn from our knowledgeable Miami staff about these prehistoric creatures by building special dinosaur models which they get to keep. When they learn about volcanoes they will get the hands on experience of actually building an erupting volcano. To round out their Jurassic days the campers will participate in field activities, dinogames, field trips, swimming, and dinoart. The Jurassicampers will even get to hold and examine a real dinosaur egg, Mesasourus skeleton and dinosaur teeth. Our return campers will be able to enter into our different dino-levels from the T-Rex’s to the Spinosaurus’s, so that each session will always add something new for the Jurassicampers to experience. We look forward to another exciting DINOmite summer with our future paleontologists!
