Guided reading and discussion
Enchanted forest exploration
Fantasy-inspired journaling and creative writing
Collaborative games and team-building
Hands-on crafts inspired by the story
Meaningful conversations about courage, friendship, loyalty, and discovering the magic within themselves
Who: Girls entering grades 6–8
Where: Forest Hill Park
2370 Lee Boulevard
Cleveland Heights, OH 44118

Monday, August 3 – Friday, August 7
1:00–4:00 PM

✨ A copy of Princess of the Silver Woods by Jessica Day George
📖 An Enchanted Field Journal to record discoveries, reflections, sketches, and magical observations
🎨 All crafts and activity materials
🍎 Daily snacks
🌲 Five afternoons of immersive literary adventures in beautiful Forest Hill Park
Throughout the week, girls will step into the magical world of the novel through engaging discussions, enchanted nature walks, creative projects, imaginative games, journaling, and activities designed to spark wonder while building confidence, friendships, creativity, and a lifelong love of reading.
Fantasy in the Forest is intentionally limited to just 8 participants, creating a welcoming small-group experience where every girl is known, encouraged, and given the opportunity to shine.
The program is led by Genevieve McDougal, founder of Empower the Middle LLC, and a middle school educator with 25 years of teaching experience. Every activity has been thoughtfully designed to bring literature to life through imagination, nature, creativity, and meaningful connection.
