Get ready for a fun, flavorful, and unforgettable adventure in the kitchen at Dream Big Day Camp’s Coolinary Cooking Camp! This hands-on specialty camp is designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and confidence as kids learn to prepare, taste, and share delicious, nutritious, and sustainable meals.

This half-day, 5-day camp is perfect for young chefs of all experience levels. Campers don’t just cook—they explore! Guided by engaging Sticky Fingers Cooking instructors for our 20th summer together, kids are introduced to exciting new flavors, ingredients, and combinations in a way that’s fun, approachable, and empowering.

What Young Chefs Will Learn & Experience:

Learning Through All the Senses
Our interactive curriculum encourages campers to touch, taste, smell, and create, building confidence and a lifelong appreciation for wholesome foods. Sampling is always encouraged, making every class both educational and delicious!

And of course… FUN!
Instructors bring the kitchen to life with humor, creativity, and high energy. Campers take pride in what they create and enjoy the tasty results of their hard work at the end of each session.
