Sadly I was only at camp 3 days. Had to take 2 sick days to recover from a cold and a bit of flu bug that has been going around camp this summer. But thankfully I'm healthy again and looking forward to taking on week 8! Hard to believe there are only 10 days of camp left and then summer is pretty much done and the little kiddies and young adults like my self are back to school. :)
The kids are always finding cool things on trees, in the grass, at the playground, even on the picnic table where they eat lunch. Found this cool little guy on Wed and he made all 8 of my kids smile and happy, they didn't want to put him down but after some talking to and a better understanding they thought a nice bush would be a better place for are little friend to hang out.
The long grass is my favorite place to be at Pittock park! It gives the campers a great place to play man hunt and other games that require some space. The campers can also find some pretty cool stuff in the grass, bugs, weeds, grass of course, trees, sticks, I've even scene a family of bunnies running around the grass. The kids are really good at respecting the park and understand that we are visitors and that it is a privilege to be able to come to such an awesome place everyday.
The picture above shows some of the Olympic rings some of the campers painted on Tuesday. The kids had a blast painting and I wasn't worried if the rings were in order or the right shape or if they even painted the rings. Seeing the smiles and laughter makes me smile and happy for the campers. Looking forward to Wild Wild West theme week for week 8. Have a great week! :)
