Tuesday Camp

My daughter, who attends Tuesday Camp, said this was her favorite camp yet!  We are gearing up for the holidays around here and stayed busy today.  The girls did Stage 1 of a secret present they are making for their parents, which will end in a beautifully wrapped box for them to put under the tree for Mom/Dad.  They also finished their Holly Berry Trivets (Thank you Grandma D for operating the glue gun for us) AND made a super cute Christmas pillowcase.  Check out my "silly gooses" below:

We read three holiday books together and sampled the fudge I made for "Mom's Night Out Christmas Camp" on Thursday.
There is a spot becoming available in this camp next semester.  Please contact me if you are interested in sending your daughter to weekly Tuesday Camp.
Cheers!

Mom's Night Out Christmas Camps

Thursday, December 2, 6:00-9:00 or
Tuesday, December 21, 6:00-9:00
$35.00 (Includes all materials and munchies/drinks)

I hope you can join me on one of the festive “Mom’s Night Out Christmas Camps” listed above! With Christmas music playing and friendship all around, will spend the evening crafting together. You will make several goodies, including: a poinsettia/candy centerpiece (could be a great hostess gift if you are going away for the holidays, or something to put aside and bring out year after year), a holly berry trivet for your Christmas Table (something my mom taught me to make from childhood; a very special memento), a cup globe ornament and a spool ornament where your child can write his or her Christmas list to mark this special time. There will be Christmas goodies to munch on and wine and eggnog to drink. Leave with your own bin filled with your goodies, including a little surprise present from me (a craft project in itself for you to re-create at home) as well as the know how to make more of these projects at home if you wish. Spaces are limited, so please sign up soon to reserve your spot.

Thanksgiving is around the corner!

This week at camps we are thinking THANKSGIVING!  3 camps this week will be making Turkey Hand Print Hot Pad holders.  Below is my daughter, Alex, working on hers.


And here are a couple of the finished projects.


Our craft went fairly fast this week, so we made a batch of mini-chocolate cupcakes, and ate a couple while warm of course!

Thanksgiving Camp

Today I had my first of monthly Holiday Camps with the sweetest group of girls!  We made Turkey Handprint Hot Pad Holders, Turkey containers to hold pretzels we dipped in chocolate, and we made Conversation Starter baskets, plus had time to read 2 Thanksgiving storybooks and do a little singing with Tatjana!  In this photo the girls are concentrating as they make paper feathers to adorn their Turkey Pretzel containers :)  We talked today about how excited we are to meet again for Christmas Camp next month.

Spots left in 2 Christmas Camps

Currently there is one spot left in my Boys Christmas Camp on Dec. 6th.

Three spots are left in the Thursday, Dec. 9th Christmas Camp for girls!  Contact me if you would like a spot for your child.  More details from these camps can be found on previous posts.

Conversation Starter Baskets!

We wove Thanksgiving scrapbook paper through strawberry baskets, added felt to the bottom and put our last name initials on the front of these festive baskets today.  Then the girls wrote down questions, tongue twisters and jokes on paper leaves and filled their baskets with them, so that guests at Thanksgiving dinner can pull leaves and read them aloud.  We did it tonight at dinner with my family and we were all laughing before long.

Spend an afternoon with Chrissie creating Christmas heirlooms in a Christmas workshop.  With Christmas Carols in the background, we will make a cupcake ornament (choice of wrapper color), a Christmas pillowcase and make “thin-mint cookies” to take home and share with your loved ones.  The kids will enjoy a cozy story-time with a couple fun Christmas books.  We will also make hot chocolate and enjoy sipping it as we watch “Frosty The Snowman” as a special holiday treat.  If we have time at the end, we will play some group games together.
