Kids & Co's community-focused holiday camps provide students with opportunities to apply classroom knowledge to solve real-world problems. In conjunction with the UNESCO International Literacy Day on 8th September 2021, they are conducting the "Lit Up the World" Camp - a week-long community project to raise awareness and remind people of the importance of literacy in empowering individuals, families, and societies (even for a developed country like Singapore!)

Children will be able to:

• Improve their public speaking skills and gain confidence in communicating in a variety of situations
• Deepen their interest in books, reading, and literature
• Develop their community awareness and cultivate a strong sense of purpose
• Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills

Lit Up the World Camp is packed with fun-filled, educational, and experiential activities. Children will be engaged in various activities such as interviewing the public on commonly misread/misused words, having a librarian share their experience, working with preschoolers on a story-telling and reading buddies program, creating an animation flipbook, and a multi-sensory literacy excursion! The highlight of the camp is a literacy-focused community project - children will get to decide on the project and will be actively involved in its planning and execution. The project will end off with the children presenting their findings and reflections to their parents! Through these activities, children are able to develop their confidence and public speaking skills, raise their interest in books and reading, and develop a strong sense of purpose in their lives!
