Thank you Austin Families for choosing us as the Best Specialty Camp! Although our main focus is teaching our students Spanish, we do our best to have fun by learning through science, games, dance, music, cooking, art, Montessori lessons and much more. We always focus our camps environmental awareness and kindness which we feel students truly enjoy.
Participate in our newest venture for the community! In collaboration with Upbring School of Arts & Science, Mariposas is now sponsoring a Little Seed Library at our office/summer camp location. The Seed Library contains seeds and information about growing food for yourself and community.
It works just like a Little Book Library- take a pack, leave a pack system. These “libraries” exist to encourage food sharing and gardening in communities and families.
Start to grow at 3501 Red River.
Voyager Austin is an online Magazine that interviews hidden gems of Austin and the surrounding area. Read their interview with Mariposas Founder, Yvette Montalvo here. Where you can also find other hidden gems from Austin!
Mariposas Day Camps are offered on most AISD Holidays. They are a fun and pressure-free way for children to practice their Spanish naturally through themed lessons, outdoor activities/nature exploration, games, music, yoga and beyond! We will be updating our day camp page soon! .

Learning a second language as a kid is exciting! They’re discovering other cultures, practicing new traditions, and building their language skills through songs, games, and stories. Picking up vocabulary and language foundations comes easy; and unknowingly, kids are getting a big cognitive boost in brain development through being bilingual.
It can be intimidating as a parent supporting your child in a foreign language. Are you a monolingual parent trying to raise a bilingual child? A bilingual parent helping your kids navigate learning a language foreign to you? Don’t stress!
Mariposas Spanish School is proud to continue providing high-quality Spanish education for children across the country through Mariposas en Casa, their virtual Spanish program, in 2021. Mariposas en Casa was developed in Spring 2020 as response to the local community demand for continuing Spanish education at home following the cancellation of in-classroom learning due to COVID-19. Over the last ten months, Mariposas Spanish School has been able to provide virtual live and on-demand classes at the international level, with families logging in from Texas to Mexico to England.
We are honored to have been recognized by Austin Families as the “Best Language Program” for 2019. Gracias a las escuelas, maestras, familias y estudiantes!
