What a “zoo”pendous week we had at summer camp! Our campers began the exciting week by making handprint flamingos and tie-dye peacocks. On Tuesday, we had a visitor from Party Animals, a traveling petting zoo. At the end of the week, we kept ourselves busy by making swinging monkeys, alligator sticks, and cooling ourselves off during water play. Overall, it is easy to say we had nothing less than a “zoo”per time!
This week we were expert campers and hikers! We talked about and practiced outdoor safety by putting together our own first aid kit. We went on a “Happy Camper” scavenger hunt to look for tools and items needed for a successful camping trip. Our campers also made their own fire-fly catching jars and pretended to sit by the “camp fire”, while tasting some healthified berry s’mores!
