Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our packets are designed for kids ages 6–10 who love exploring nature. They’re great for homeschooling, after-school fun, weekend adventures, or anyone looking to reduce screen time with engaging, outdoor activities. Click here to explore packets.

  • We’re rooted in Southern Vermont and love working with libraries, camps, and community programs near East Dorset, Danby, Manchester, and beyond. However, our packets can be implemented anywhere throughout the Northeast!

  • Celebrate LAND packets are a great way to supplement your existing curriculum. They emphasize experiential learning, observation skills, and reading comprehension— plus, our reward system keeps kids motivated and proud of their work!

    Founder Scout Proft is also a huge believer in the magic of mail, which is why CLP packets and badges are sent via snail mail.

  • No, you do not have to order a packet for each child! Each packet will be stamped with a participant code that can be redeemed 1x, 2x, or 3x according to purchase.

  • Our current prizes are custom CLP keychains (“badges”) that boast an eye-catching, content-themed emblem.   

  • We encourage participants to complete all 5 activities in a packet, but only 3 are required to earn a prize. Please attach 3-5 photographs to your submission form; one of each completed activity. Please complete only ONE (1) submission form per child.

    1. Complete 3-5 Activities from a CLP Packet
      Finish 3-5 of the activities included in your packet. There’s no right or wrong way— each child’s experience is unique!

    2. Take Photos of the Work
      Snap a few clear photos of your child’s completed projects, nature discoveries, or reflections.

    3. Navigate to the “Submit Work” Page
      Visit our work submission page to fill out a submission form. You’ll be able to upload photos directly to the form. If you’re submitting work for more than one child, please complete a separate submission form for each child.

    4. Local Volunteers Will Take a Look!
      Your submission will be reviewed by a local volunteer— often a senior citizen in your area who enjoys seeing children engage with nature!

    5. Receive a Badge in the Mail
      Within a few weeks, your child will receive a physical badge as a reward for their efforts. It’s our way of celebrating their curiosity and connection to the natural world!

  • ​What is a facilitator?

    We aim to partner with local camps, schools, and youth programs to offer a facilitated CLP experience. This is a good option for those who wish to participate in a group setting.

    What is a sponsor?

    CLP sponsors are small businesses/organizations who support our mission by offering packets to their local communities at no charge. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity!  

    Please note that both of these options are limited by local availability. 

    Celebrate LAND Project was soft-launched in July 2024. We appreciate your patience as we work to forge relationships with local sponsors and facilitators.

  • While Celebrate LAND Project is not yet registered as a 501(c)(3) organization, we apply almost all of our profits toward the creation of new activities, and to the celebration of land within our community. 

    Our online store includes the option to “donate” a packet. Each “donated” packet will be delivered to a sponsor for distribution within their community.

  • The costs associated with researching and writing activities, printing, packaging, shipping, and manufacturing prizes are what drive the price of our packets.  

    Each CLP packet contains a book list and five exciting activities that invite children to celebrate their environment. Children have the opportunity to earn collectible prizes that are unique to each concept area (at no additional charge). 

    While Celebrate LAND Project is not yet registered as a 501(c)(3) organization, we apply almost all of our profits toward the creation of new activities, and to the celebration of land within our community. 

  • Our mission is to help everyone celebrate land, irrespective of location or means. To learn more about how we determine the price of our packets, please visit the FAQ section on pricing.
