Dec 21-24: Frost and Sparkle Camp
Fake snow, real crystals, sparkle slime, and a Crystal Castle lit from inside. | 4 Day Camp
About the Class
THE VILLAGE (1102 Lincoln) | Monday, December 21 – Thursday, December 24, 2026 Four days of chilly magic at The Winter Wonderlab. The Big Build is The Crystal Castle: a tabletop fantasy castle that grows across the week as campers harvest sugar crystals and add them to its walls and turrets. By Day 4, it lights from inside at the kids-only Sparkle Show. Day 1 is Snow Lab: fake snow, instant ice, snow globes. Day 2 is Sparkle Lab: crystal seeds get planted, sparkle slime mixed, glitter potions shaken. Day 3 is Crystal Reveal Day. Day 4 is the Sparkle Show: a kids-only lighting ceremony where the Castle glows to life — it stays lit and visible at the 4:00 pickup, the photos go out in the family recap email, and crystal jars go home. Every Wonderlab apprentice takes home a personal crystal in a labeled jar, snow-globe craft, sparkle-slime jar, Winter Wonderlab journal, and a photo with the Castle.
