Author Week Begins!

It is wonderful to see how many campers we have who are excited about reading!  Some of the authors and books discussed today include Eric Carle, Dr. Seuss, the Arthur series, and Harry Potter.  

We had a rousing game of Quidditch that was set up very similar to the game from the Harry Potter series and some of our campers were able to explain the rules!  We made hats just like the Cat in the Hat’s and sock puppets that we used to animate our own stories!  We also were able to fully experience Dr. Seuss’ story of Bartholomew and the Oobleck by getting our hands in some oobleck of our own while listening to the story!  

Our field trip this week is to One Stop Fun; please remember to send in the permission slip and waiver.

Plenty of Sunshine for a Day at the Pool!

It is so nice when the best day of the week (weather-wise) appears on Friday!  

It was an absolutely beautiful day for swimming.  The water was a little warmer this week, but was extremely refreshing.  The kids had a great time splashing, playing, and becoming better swimmers.  It was a great way to finish green week as we enjoyed nature both in and out of the pool.

Next week we shift to Author Week, which will include many favorites like Dr. Seuss but may also introduce the kids to some books and/or authors that may be brand new!
