Learn How You Can Bring An Online Healthy Culinary Camp Program To Your Families
Limited to the first 20 camp partners! Contact Us Today!
A Virtual Cooking Summer Camp from LIFT Enrichment is designed to get your campers cooking healthy meals, learning about nutrition and having FUN in the comfort of their home. LIFT Enrichment, Inc is based in Los Angeles and serves San Diego, Orange County,
San Mateo County, San Francisco and more areas through the West Coast with a specialty program that empowers kids to cook at home and eat more vegetables.
Our virtual cooking camp is a LIVE and engaging class experience where our Chef Teachers lead a half-day
lesson that incorporates a quick no-cook breakfast, art project, exercise and movement component, virtual tour of a restaurant or farmers market and ends each day with a cook-along to make a healthy lunch!
Our camp is a 3-hour culinary experience Monday-Friday, for a total of 15 hours of educational and fun content for kids. This helps parents keep kids occupied and engaged so they can have a break for work or their own projects. The first ⅔ of the day is designed
to be completely hassle-free for parents, with the last hour reserved for making a healthy lunch with parents in the kitchen.

How Does The Cooking Work Virtually?
- There are two portions of cooking with our Chef
Quick Breakfast:
Parents will get an exact list of common household ingredients (oats, nuts, bread) and fresh ingredients (vegetables, fruit, yogurt, etc.) to make an EASY breakfast that requires no cooking, just assembling and putting simple ingredients together.
Examples:
Yogurt Parfait with Granola, Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats, Quinoa & Blueberries Cereal, etc. Parents just get the ingredients ready, a placemat and let our Chefs do the rest!
Cook-Along Healthy Lunch:
Parents can cook ALONGSIDE their kids at 11:00am (after all, it’s almost lunch time!) OR kids can simply watch and engage with the live lessons. We’ve taught dozens of virtual cooking classes this way, and kids benefit if they make the lunch, or just hang out with the group and watch how food is made, like a live cooking show.
Recipe Examples:
Healthy Mac & Cheese, Grilled Cheese with Broccoli Slaw, Sushi Handrolls, Lean Burgers, Chicken Salad Wraps, Orange Chicken with Rice, etc.

No! That’s the beauty of a virtual summer camp.
If enrollment exceeds 30 screens (remember, each screen can have anywhere from 1-3 kids in it depending on the household), we will open up another Zoom video classroom with 2 Chef Teachers engaging in the same curriculum. If you have 3 kids enrolled, then all 3 get to experience our camp. This works the same if you have 20 kids enrolled.
No, this is a group experience where your campers will be other campers from other locations. That’s the magic of a virtual camp! Kids can meet other kids from other places, all with a passion for cooking. The only exception is if you have 20 registrations from your school alone.
We will need final enrollment numbers 2 business days before the week starts, which would be the Thursday before camp starts by 9:00am. We need to plan accordingly. Once the class starts on Monay, there won’t be refunds.
Deadline To Signup:
We are accepting camp partners by May 22nd. You must fill out our form below to secure a spot!
This is on a first-come, first-serve basis. We’re limiting this to the first 20 camp partners because this is our first summer and we want to service a small group of vendors.
