Session 1: Afternoon Adv-endings

The end of the first session of Afternoon Adventures concluded with some outstanding art shows, but first parents got to come watch their kids perform the songs they had been singing with Pauline. Campers all made a circle in the ballroom and played percussion instruments along with the vocal stylings of Pauline and their peers.
Campers use shakers, tambourines, drums, and more to accompany their rendition of Bitty Bitty Bum

3 outgoing campers proudly sing the new verse of Bitty Bitty Bum that Summer Spree added to Pauline's travelling song

Singing another song about wheat growing to make bread with an old grandmother. Campers planted their seeds...

and they grew so tall!

My iPhone video did not come through as I had hoped, and the pictures almost come close to doing it justice, but the campers sounded great and had an awesome time with this musical special! Hope the parents enjoyed it as much as the kids seemed to!


Now for some Art Shows!

The Yellow and Orange groups worked very hard during their time in the afternoon! Jane, in her Grow With The Flow tie-dye shirt, was excited to show me her book full of art, the Yellow Group's special project for the session.

The cover, made of cardboard covered in fabric, buttons, glitter, etc...

they also did a needlepoint page, 

and a comic strip...with more blank pages to fill in when the inspiration hits.

the rest of the Yellow Group's books, and their fish which they made in ceramics.
 The Orange group was occupied when i went to see their artwork, but here it is on display, below.

Mosaic fish made by pushing glass beads into sand molded into a fish shape, then pouring plaster over top and letting sit overnight.

boats made of recycled wood pieces, paint, beads, shells, corks, foam pieces, and more!

ceramics projects, hand prints, and more! the Orange Group was very busy during Session 1!
