Session One Recap

Wow! This summer has been a big celebration already! We are in our third week of camp, which means that one session of camp Kaleidoscope is over. Our theme, Superheroes, was a super-fun time. The girls in camp spent their mornings learning about historical heroes, making super hero related crafts, and learning how to make chemical reactions with 'superhero' ingredients (or vinegar and baking soda!) We had a dress up day for girls to dress like their favorite superhero. There were several Superman, Batman, and Spiderman t-shirts. We also had several girls who dressed up as Elsa from the latest Disney hit, Frozen. The session ended with a finale show that Batman and Superman would have been proud of.

We're Back!

 

Learning the Macarena!

Jess was excited to greet the campers!

The 40th year of GPS Summer Camp is now underway! We're only two days in, but the girls are already having a blast! We saw so many girls walking up with huge smiles on their faces on Monday morning. One camper walked up to me with a huge smile and said "I love GPS camp!", and she continued to tell me how much she was looking forward to swimming. Her mother explained how she asked her daughter about camp, and how she begged her to go to Camp Kaleidoscope! (Another reason why we love our campers!) 

 

Making a superhero concoction!

Yesterday, the girls really dug into the 'Superhero' theme for session one during their classes. They learned how to 'freeze-dance' during dance (and they learned the Macarena!) In morning mash-up, they read a story with Mrs. Jackson. In science, the girls mixed together super hero ingredients to cause a chemical reaction! Then in art, the campers made super hero hair clips with some classic catch phrases.

Story-time with Mrs. Jackson!

Not to mention lunch, pool time, and plenty of dancing!

We are so excited to be back at camp, and we can't wait to see what the summer has in store!
