Let's Go Camping

 Hello

Is it just me or did summer fly by??
We've spent many fun summer days enjoying the weather and creating when it's too hot to be outside.

So, here's what we did the past few weeks.

Campfire and Roasting Marshmallows
We decorated paper tubes that I covered with brown paper and then added the flame and the stick with the cotton ball on the end.  
We sat around the fires telling stories...so fun!


Camping Tents



Sleeping Bag





Camping Lantern
I made these by cutting off the top part of a water bottle and then attaching a plastic cup over it using a pipe cleaner.  The kids decorated them with coloured tapes and then we added a little battery light.


Paper Smores


Real Smores
We made these for our snack.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
