a hike towards the end of the week. On Monday we made fruit ice cubes
using strawberries & blueberries and let those freeze while we went
outside and made bubble snakes using dish detergent and the used the
slip and slide to cool off!! On Tuesday we built our solar oven and
tried to bake cookies-turns out we didn't have enough time for the
cookies to bake and were going to try to make s'mores on Wednesday but
that activity got rained out. On Wednesday we made oobleck and the
kids taught me spider ball for the first time!! Boy does that game
have you moving..thank you Zeb for helping me get the basics down. On
Thursday we spend a great day hiking at Squier Point..the kids were
disappointed to see the stream was all dried up but showed me some of
their favorite spots! We kicked off Friday with the help of Maggie by
making pretzels, playing hide and seek in the garden and having fun
outside since it was so beautiful. After school camp did a variety of
activities this week including playing store, going to the park, going
to the Kalona Cheese Factory, building a story using cicada's as our
crew, and ended the week at Dairy Queen. It was a great week. I had a
great time with my first vacation camp and thank Zeb & Maggie for
helping out. It was wonderful getting to know the children and I look
forward to seeing more kids in vacation camp next time :)--Devon
