If you are looking for a fun, exciting, and rewarding way to spend your summer working with children AND if you are a creative, high energy person (LEGO-lover a big plus), then Kidizens is the place for you! 

Kidizens is a unique, innovative enrichment program for 1st through 6th graders (ages 6-12) where “kid citizens” create an entire LEGO city over the course of the week while learning about civics and city planning, government, economics, the environment, and much more.

In a super fun and high energy environment, you will be working collaboratively and under the supervision of the Lead Camp Counselor to deliver a high quality summer camp experience. You will be responsible to ensure daily student check-ins, help campers (“Young Mayors”) with their daily city-related projects, and help children engage in problem-solving and critical thinking when their city faces a challenge. In addition, you will aid the campers with fun, creative LEGO-building projects.

Ideal candidates are student teachers, college students and high school graduates with prior summer camp experience. Working with Kidizens is the perfect way to spend your school break, build up professional experience and a fantastic addition to any college application.
