Inside Mission Makers Summer Camp
Where Kids Build Real-Life Skills Through Action
Mission Makers is a hands-on, small-group summer camp designed to help kids with ADHD strengthen executive functioning skills like planning, focus, organization, and follow-through—through engaging, real-world missions.
This isn’t a sit-and-listen program.
Kids learn by doing, practicing, reflecting, and trying again—with support every step of the way.
What Makes Mission Makers Different?
In school, kids are expected to use these skills, but rarely given the chance to practice them in meaningful ways.
At Mission Makers, kids:
Practice skills in real-time situations
Receive immediate feedback and coaching
Learn through hands-on, engaging challenges
Build confidence through repetition and success
This is where understanding turns into actual ability.
What Kids Will Work On
Each day is designed to target key executive functioning skills, including:
Planning & Organization – breaking tasks into steps and managing materials
Focus & Attention – staying engaged and following through
Task Initiation – getting started without avoidance
Flexible Thinking – adapting when things don’t go as planned
Emotional Regulation – handling frustration and setbacks
Independence – building confidence in their own abilities
What Is a “Mission”?
A mission is a structured, hands-on challenge that requires kids to use multiple skills at once.
For example, kids might:
Work as a team to complete a challenge with specific rules
Plan and execute a multi-step task
Solve a problem with limited directions
Reflect on what worked and what they would do differently
Each mission is followed by guided reflection so kids can:
👉 Understand what they did
👉 See what worked
👉 Improve the next time
The Mission Makers Approach
Every session follows a consistent structure:
Mission Brief – Clear goal and expectations
Active Mission Time – Kids engage in the challenge
Coaching & Feedback – Real-time support and guidance
Reflection – Kids review their performance and growth
This cycle is what helps skills actually stick and transfer to real life.
Small Groups, Big Impact
Small group setting for individualized attention
Supportive, structured environment
Opportunities for peer interaction and teamwork
This allows each child to receive the guidance they need while practicing skills in a social setting.
What Parents Can Expect to See
By the end of the week, many parents may notice their child:
Starts tasks with less resistance
Follows directions more independently
Stays with a task longer
Handles frustration more appropriately
Shows increased confidence
