A Note from Vinnie

Founder & Camp Creator

I've always believed that classic board games are more than just fun — they teach valuable life skills like taking turns, following rules, strategic thinking, and teamwork. That's why I created Not-So-Board Games Camp — a one-of-a-kind, week-long adventure designed for curious and creative kids ages 5-10 who love games and excitement.

This camp is designed in two age groups. Our younger gamers (ages 5-7) discover and play classic games like Candy Land, Snakes & Ladders, Trouble, and Sequence for Kids — each game coming to life through interactive activities, crafts, and games that make the experience larger than life! Our older game masters (ages 8-10) dive into Classic Battleship, Exploding Kittens, Codenames, and Sequence, plus they get to experience VR versions of the games they play that make the experience truly next level.

Throughout the week, campers enjoy daily board game play where they learn how to play, take turns, follow rules, and work as a team. They create themed arts 'n' crafts — colorful artwork inspired by the games they play. They stay active with outdoor activities and friendly sports challenges including obstacle courses, scavenger hunts, friendly team sports, and playground games. And they enjoy arcade time as a fun daily break for playful competition and teamwork, including Minecraft and several others.

One of the highlights of the week is a field trip to High Park — exploring nature, playing outdoors, and having a picnic adventure!

Each day blends social skill-building, creative thinking, and physical activity — so campers are always moving, learning, and having fun. By the end of the week, they'll have new friends, new favorite games, and a collection of arts and crafts they've created themselves.

Not-So-Board Games Camp is the perfect mix of education and entertainment — engaging kids in cooperative play while keeping the focus on fun!

If your kid loves games, creativity, and making new friends — this is the camp for them. Let the games begin!
