Week Three, Day One: Building the Mansion
Monday, July 22, 2024 | |
The first day of week three! We started the day by making popsicle fish sharks for the morning craft. Then we went outside for a snack and to play with the parachute. We played the get to know you game and the cat and mouse game. We came inside to read a book and learn about architects. We talked about how an architect would have built the mansion. The campers got to design their own mansions and become architects themselves. Then, we had lunch before we toured the Blithewold Mansion. In the mansion, the campers learned about the Van Wickle Family and some fun facts about how it was built. We ended the day by writing in our camp memory books. Tomorrow, we will be playing Capture the Flag. Here are the houses from today!
