"We will be there again this year! Just want to give you a heads up on a really fun camp! My girls did this with Marisa last year and LOVED it! If your girls love the outdoors and likes learning primitive skills, then this camp is for them. Marisa is a fantastic teacher, she knows when to offer a lot of guidance and when to let a child explore on their own." ~Heather (mom to Sarah 13, Michelle 11)
"My girls (now aged 13 and 15) have been attending Marisa's camps for a few years now. They have learned many amazing outdoor survival skills (fire making, wild edibles, shelter building), primitive crafting, cooperative game play, sensory games, songs, and so much more! Every year, when I ask them what camps they might want to do, they always say BEan In Nature. Marisa homeschools her two boys, plus has the education and training to lead children in the outdoors. Diamond Mendez, one of her instructors, was homeschooled and also has the education and training for an amazing teaching skills. My girls have done a year long teen program with him and also has nothing but praise for him. Check them out!" ~Heather Ward
"Marisa is such a fantastic addition to my child's life that we schedule her nature classes first and everything else around them. Not only is Marisa fantastic with kids in general, but her care and detail with my daughter's food allergies has made her a trusted member of my inner circle. In addition to being a fabulous mentor, Marisa is a skilled nature teacher with boundless enthusiasm and energy. I love having her as a role model for my daughter! Do I recommend her classes? A thousand times YES." - Homeschool Mom, San Jose, CA
