Milford Adaptive Programs

Looking for a chill way to kick off your week? Summer Snackin’ is back for another summer session! Join Camp Happiness Counselors Laura and Amanda for a delicious summer adventure filled with fun snacks, creative recipes, and exciting food-themed activities. Each week, we’ll whip up tasty snacks that are easy, fun, and totally delicious—think fruit kabobs, trail mix creations, smores, cool yogurt parfaits, milkshakes and other treats. Participants will get hands-on experience creating sweet treats, refreshing summer snacks, and no-bake recipes that are perfect for hot summer days. We will also play food-themed games, learn basic kitchen skills, and discover fun facts about the foods we eat. Whether you're into sweet, salty, or a little of both, there's something for everyone. Come hang out, learn simple kitchen skills, and snack your way through summer with friends!
