What kids practice in KampKid
The eight KampKid camps
KampKid has eight camps. Each one teaches one real-world camping skill through pictures, voices and choices, with Tilla the otter and Lance the camper. Fire, water, wildlife and first aid are always practiced with a grown-up.
Chapter 1 is free to play in your browser. A one-time purchase unlocks Chapters 2 to 8.
