We will introduce safe gymnastics skills to our campers. We will start with a warm up and then the fun will start. The campers will do basic beam skills, basic floor skills; have tumble track and trampoline time. At the end of the week, campers will choose their favorite skill and share it with the group.
Week 3
July 11- July 15 We will play and create our day away during our Arts and Crafts Galore Week. We will be creative, original, and clever. We will be working with each child’s own ideas, working as a group, and sharing designs. Some of the items we anticipate trying are using egg cartons, paints, bubble-wrap, tin cans, magazines, and outdoor elements. Campers will create a huge “Spectacular Sparkly” collage to display in the gym.
