How It Works

Big Dreams Bloom offers elementary aged girls weekly classes, weekend workshops, school break camps, summer camps, virtual classes and more!

After School Enrichment Program

Calling all young lady makers, creators, and science lovers for HERstory Highlights, an after school enrichment program offering weekly classes at Monarch Learning Academy.

The girls are sure to love participating in the hands-on learning extensions as we read about trailblazers who followed their dreams & changed the world. Our workshop style classes are filled with STEM challenges, art activities, science experiments, and stories of women who have made HERstory! A unique learning experience that will inspire the girls to make their own Big Dreams Bloom!

We love partnering with other Orlando area schools! Interested in having Big Dreams Bloom in your after school program? Email us at emily@bigdreamsbloom.com

Weekend Workshops

Looking for something fun and creative on the weekends? New to Big Dreams Bloom, and want your daughter to check it out? Workshops make for a super unique playdate opportunity, so be sure to tell your friends! Join us once a month for our maker style workshops.

Virtual Program

Our virtual program is a great option for an afternoon or evening class from the comfort of home. Adorable carefully curated surprise activity bags containing all the materials needed for each class will be sent upon registration.

Each week the girls will discover one outstanding woman from HERstory! The stories of these inspirational women will naturally lead to a great book club style discussion.

Breakout sessions allow for community building and time to share thoughts, ideas and encouragement.. Live interactive instruction makes STEM challenges, science experiments, and art activities with virtual gal pals fun and exciting! Form friendships with girls all over the country through weekly virtual meet-ups.

Mentorship

We are so proud of our mentorship program that has developed over the last few years with female experts in architecture, engineering, and interior design at Baker Barrios Architects.

We are thrilled to continue this program for future architects, budding engineers, and promising interior designers through the ultimate summer camp experience: Dollhouse Design.

Not only do the girls plan, design, and create their own wooden dollhouses, but they also have the incredible opportunity to meet with a team of experts and interns. What an amazing experience for the girls to get feedback and advice on their own design plans.

We love empowering girls to dream big. This is an experience that the girls will remember forever!

What our Gal Pals & Parents Have To Say

I cannot say enough positive things about this wonderful virtual program that Simona did last week with Big Dreams Bloom. Emily has done an incredible job crafting each and every session (journal keeping, tinkering encouraged, projects, art) highlighting important women in history that are not frequently talked about. Thanks Emily!

Emily is really onto something. She has created that perfect mix of fun + hands-on-learning + authentic connection in a virtual environment! I'd recommend Big Dreams Bloom to any family that wants to inspire their little girl to BLOOM!

Role models may not be the usual suspects, and why not Joan Proctor, Emma Lillian Todd, Evelyn Cheesman, Julia Morgan and Ruth Asawa (the women she learned about). I learned a lot too and had fun listening in. My daughter really enjoyed meeting gals from other areas and the class size was small. What a breath of fresh air.

My daughter has enjoyed participating in Big Dreams Bloom sessions for the past year. We were looking for virtual enrichment programs during our time at home last year. Emily Blomquist has created a unique opportunity for our girls to learn the stories of amazing women throughout history and work on thematic STEM-related projects. It's also fun to engage with girls across the US. I learned about this program through a friend's Facebook post and I'm so grateful she shared it.

Anna absolutely loved her first session and has been asking every night how many days until the next one. You did a first class job! As expected! Thank you so much!
