If 45 days of summer vacation was not about screens.
It would look like 150 kids holding animals, riding horses, and cooking from scratch.
For the very first time in their lives.
This was Creste's Summer Carnival.
They held dogs and cats.
Watched parrots up close.
Rode a horse for the first time.
Made their own food from scratch.
Got their hands deep into clay.
Watched puppets tell stories.
And completely forgot their phones existed.
Most parents get maybe 10 days off to actually take their kids somewhere.
So what does a child do with the remaining 35?
That question is what we built this entire carnival around.
And here is what I want every school and brand to ask themselves.
Did a child experience something they otherwise never would.
Will they go home talking about every single detail without being asked.
Will they sleep early so the next day would come faster.
And when was the last time a screen could not compete with what they were looking forward to.
Because summer is not supposed to be survived.
It is supposed to be remembered.
Parents, what is one thing your child did this summer that they will not stop talking about?
