Real Outdoor Skills at Age 6

Francesca at Avid4 Adventure’s Explorer Camp

We were at our neighborhood pool this week and my daughter and her friend were playing on a large raft. They were trying to both get on the raft and it kept moving making it difficult for the friend to get on. I asked if they needed help and my daughter responded "No, I know how to pull someone up onto a boat or raft...I learned it at Avid." She proceeded to pull her friend up using the method she learned at Avid explaining to me, step-by-step, what she was doing.

This is a simple example but just one of many where I have seen of my 6 year old truly learning skills from her time with Avid. It's fun and adventurous but also teaching her real skills—and that is my favorite part of it.
