Camp Sparkler: Hopes & Dreams
Episode 29
Monday, 25 August, 2025
It's our eighth and final week of Little Kids, Big Hearts @ Camp Sparkler, and we're focused on our hopes and dreams: What are we looking forward to as the new school year approaches? What do we want to learn? What are we excited to experience? 💚 First, Todd shares some clips from an episode called "Hopes & Dreams With Jolly Abraham." Three kids — Levi, Christine, and Ariel — share some of the amazing things they'd learned in the last year ... and what they're hoping and dreaming for the year ahead .💚 Then Todd and the kids journey to the Land of Qook-a-lackas where they visit with Qook-a-lacka friend played by Jolly Abraham. They join in the Qook-a-lacka tradition of Moon Day, where they help to “send off” the old moon and “welcome” the new moon by sharing hopes and dreams. "I hope and dream for me and my brothers to get along," says Ariel. What are YOU hoping and dreaming? This summer, Camp Sparkler is exploring eight different themes related to social and emotional learning (SEL).
