Camp Checklist

Camp Breakdown

Day 1 - Story Starters

Creators are introduced to Twine and explore how choose-your-own-adventure stories work. They brainstorm their story world, main character, and central conflict, then begin building their first connected passages with simple choices.

Day 2 - Colorful Branching Paths

Creators expand their stories by adding new decision points, alternate scenes, and different routes for the reader to explore. Kids learn how to make choices feel meaningful by connecting decisions to consequences in the story. Additionally, they will learn how to add basic style elements to their stories.
