Join our weekly Role-Playing Homeschool program.
Journey into the Realms of Cascadia with Trackers Earth. Create your character! Play as an elf, wizard, ranger, and more. Gather together with great friends and allies while guided by expert Realms Masters. Campaign with foam swords, arrows, and shields. Level up by learning real outdoor skills like archery, wilderness survival, animal tracking, healing plants, and navigating by magical maps. Find fantastic adventures in nature!
Realms Homeschool is a live-action role-playing (LARP) adventure that fosters curiosity, creativity, and connection. Our expert Realms Guides act as mentors to youth and teens, playing in small teams with a band of fellow homeschoolers. Kids co-create our epic role-playing game while learning fantastic nature-based skills.
Realms role-playing curriculum complements homeschooling families. Our unique educational philosophy focuses on creating a deeper connection to community, nature, and social-emotional well-being.
Adventuring outdoors creates an incredible story based on the seasons. In fall and spring, we often journey to the wilderness to quest out in nature. During the winter, we spend part of our time in our Artisans Studios making crafts and tools essential for our quests. Through weekly adventures, you build your character and learn the following skills:
Character Creation & Role-Playing Develop your character. Choose to become an Elf, Wizard, Ranger, and more! Level up in the game of Realms by accumulating experience points with essential outdoor skills.
Nature Based Skills Learn stealth, archery, and wilderness survival to stay safe on your journey. Let animals, plants, trees, and other forces of nature be your guides. Develop authentic skills of animal tracking and nature awareness.
Questing Leadership Co-create the game. Help build upon an ongoing saga where each day is a new adventure. Weave these tales into an epic year-long story, team-building with your friends. Remember, the fate of the Realms is in your hands!
The Realms Homeschool team features some of our best Trackers staff. They are Mentors, guiding each day to help every cohort grow in their connection to each other, community, and nature.
Our Outdoor Homeschool will be conducted at Camp Herms, regardless of check in and out location, or transports by buses and vans to other wilderness locations specific to that days activities. We might visit local nature parks or explore nearby waterways for fishing and to learn about marine ecology.
