 Camp Director Laura Silvis has planned special activities based on specific themes to challenge young minds and help expand their critical, learning and fine motor skills.
We invite you to experience the joy of summer camp with us at Akiba!
Week 1 ~ June 13 - June 17
AT THE BEACH ~ Wouldn’t it be great if there was a beach in Dallas? Well, this week campers are going to visit the beach at Camp Kulanu. The children will explore water in its various forms, as well as different textures of sand. And watch out for our Camp Kulanu Luau!
Week 2 ~ June 20 – June 24 
COLOR MY WORLD ~ There is no better time to experiment with colors than during the bright and colorful summer! Our campers will enjoy a visit from a local face painter.
Week 3 ~ June 27 – July 1
BIRTHDAY BASH ~ Everyone loves to celebrate birthdays and this week campers will participate in fun-filled birthday activities, with a special focus on America’s birthday. Look out for the bounce house!
Week 4 ~ July 5 – July 8
A CAMP FOR ALL SEASONS ~ Our campers will enjoy the best of all seasons- from the crunchy leaves of the autumn to the beautiful spring flowers. Watch out because the weather forecast calls for snow!
Week 5 ~ July 11 – July 15
WHEELS IN MOTION ~ Children are fascinated with wheels of all kinds. This week our campers will explore the science of wheels. We’ll build with gears, experiment with wheels of different sizes and even create wheel structures. See wheels in motion as campers take a ride on the visiting train.
Week 6 ~ July 18 – July 22
KULANU CARNIVAL ~ The greatest show on Earth is coming to camp as we enjoy a week filled with carnival fun! To top off our summer the children will enjoy an amazing petting zoo along with pony rides.

How would you like to work, learn and play this summer—all at once? Come learn some real life skills. This great opportunity is open to campers going into seventh and eighth grades and includes:
- Obtaining real work experience with preschool students
- Having fun with friends
- Learning skills which will earn money
- Being a good example in a young child’s life
- Receiving positive references from parents and teachers that could be used later to obtain other jobs
If this sounds exciting, come join our new program, Teens ‘n Tots, at Camp Kulanu this summer.
You’ll have hands-on experiences with young children—be prepared and ready to handle anything that a young child could dish up. We will also help you learn how to create a fun and happy atmosphere for children, including creating fun games, reading stories, working on art projects and more! You’ll come away with your own individualized activity kit!
We will help you learn health and safety, including first aid and CPR training, basic child development and behavior management. While you are learning and working, we have some fun breaks in store. There’ll be field trips planned just for you—your chance to be with your peers for some summer fun designed just for teens. Roller skating, bowling and rock climbing are on the agenda—at least one event every session.
We look forward to seeing you this summer!
