How do we keep our kids engaged, active, and growing this summer
As parents, summer can feel like a big question mark: How do we keep our kids engaged, active, and growing—without them spending the whole season glued to a screen? At Camp Huawni, we believe summer should look a little different. This summer, your kids aren’t just passing the time—they’re unplugging, heading outdoors, and rediscovering the joy of being a kid.
Trading Screens for Sunshine
At Camp Huawni, screens stay at home. No phones. No tablets. No constant notifications. Instead, campers wake up to birdsong, fresh air, and full days of hands-on fun. Being unplugged allows kids to be fully present—laughing harder, connecting deeper, and engaging more confidently with the world around them.
Parents often tell us they’re amazed at how quickly their children forget about screens once they arrive. With so much happening around them, kids don’t miss devices—they’re too busy living.
Outside, All Day Long
Located in the beautiful Piney Woods of Texas, Camp Huawni is designed for outdoor adventure. Your kids spend their days:
Exploring nature and learning to appreciate the outdoors
Playing games that encourage teamwork and creativity
Moving their bodies, building strength, and gaining confidence
Experiencing the simple joy of fresh air and open space
From morning until night, campers are outside—running, laughing, and discovering what their bodies and minds are capable of when they’re not sitting still in front of a screen.
Building Real Friendships
Without screens as a barrier, friendships at camp grow fast and last long. Campers talk face-to-face, solve problems together, and share moments that turn into lifelong memories. These friendships are built on shared experiences, not group chats—and that makes all the difference.
Many parents notice that their children return home more confident socially, more comfortable starting conversations, and more connected to the people around them.
Growing Independence and Confidence
Summer at Camp Huawni isn’t just fun—it’s formative. Away from home, kids learn responsibility, resilience, and independence in a supportive, loving environment. They make decisions, try new things, and discover strengths they didn’t know they had.
And the best part? They’re doing it all while having the time of their lives.
At Camp Huawni, summer is about connection—to nature, to friends, and to who your child is becoming. We’d be honored to be part of your child’s summer story.
