Kinder-Garden Camp 2013: Week 1, Day 1

Hi everyone!

I hope all of you had a great day at camp!

We started our fun day off with bean and pasta art. We met our leaders, counselors, and new friends in our groups.

Then we got to go outside to make stained glass cilantro. We colored our bags and used paper towel to wrap our seeds up to sprout.

Campers color their bags.

Yellow Fireflies color their bags.

We went to meet the animals today too! The goats love to play and make noise when we come in the barn.

In our garden kitchen we made chips and salsa. We used lots of yummy fresh veggies in our salsa!

Today went by really fast but I can’t wait to see you all tomorrow!
