Chinese Summer Camp activities designed in a way to make Chinese learning easy and fun and, more importantly, to produce great results.
1. Chinese lessons: all of the Chinese classes focus on building students’ speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. We use a variety of methods, like games, story telling, etc., depending on the students’ learning styles to make lessons more engaging and interesting, and thus encourage learning.
2. Cultural Activities: Calligraphy, Opera Mask Painting, Making Dumplings, Paper Cutting, Mahjong, Fan Painting etc.
3. Sport Activities: Rock Climbing, Football, Table Tennis, Tai Chi, Archery, Chinese Chess etc.
4. Field Trips & Excursions:
- Beijing (The Great Wall, Beijing Parks, Temple of Heaven, Museums, Boat Rides etc);
- Shanghai (Yu Garden, Shanghai Zoo, Museums, city Bus Tour etc).

Maybe two dozen languages are shown in the wall niche space of the covered entry to the Grand Rapids Public Museum. Green, orange, and blue painted base colors make a cheerful backdrop for the bright white of the phrase "be curious" displayed in a different order on each of the niches.
Many of the languages represented use non-alphabetic forms of notation. So perhaps the basis for choosing which ones to display was visual variety, rather than national population size or city refugees resettled nearby, for example. Although the designers may have intended no ill will, when one person's culture and language is featured, but another's is excluded then some dissatisfaction may be kindled. Such finite resources as wall space can be the source of conflict that contributes to cultural politics.
