Rata2ee is a Best of Detroit (Hour Detroit) 2025 Finalist for Best Summer Camps! Rata2ee offers hands-on instruction in cooking techniques, including: knife basics; cooking fundamentals, food science & nutrition, kitchen safety, proper food handling, gardening 101 (very basics of gardening), and kids' yoga. This week-long camp teaches kids entering 2nd through 5th grades a very holistic approach to healthy living. Children will eat 3 meals (making their own breakfast, a 3-course lunch, and dessert), so no packing snacks or lunches or parents! In addition to cooking/baking, Rata2ee teaches strong character-building skills. *After registering - please visit http://bit.ly/Rata2eeCookingClassesAndCamps - create a login and password, and sign our liability waivers **Please note, child is not considered fully registered until these waivers are signed and allergies are noted ***This is a nut-free and sesame-free camps, but we are unable to accommodate for other allergies such as gluten, egg, soy, dairy and corn, due to risk of cross contamination.

Safety Town is designed to introduce all types of safety conditions to children. Participants will learn about Stranger Danger, Fire Safety, Traffic Safety, Animal Safety and what to do in an emergency situation. Activities include songs, art projects, stories, short informative movies, a ride on the district bus and a short lunch break. We also have “mini traffic lanes” that aid in the traffic safety lesson. Children will be split up into small groups and assigned a High School student camp counselor for the week. Each day children will engage in large and small group activities. Groups and activities will be broken down according to Safety Town Instructor… please do not put in requests. Volunteer visits will be made from professionals in Emergency fields. Each child will receive a t-shirt at the beginning of the week. On the last day of the session, parents and families are welcome to join us for a graduation program that will be held at 1:15 pm. Picking your child up late will result in a late charge. Children need to bring a bike helmet, peanut-free snack, peanut-free lunch and two beverages each day.
