Camping Day

Yesterday was Indoor Camping Day! We started by making bears! They painted them white with fluffy white paint (glue and shaving cream mixed)

Then they added a little bit of colorful fur (dyed rice).
Check out these beauties!

Then we put up a tent...

They got their "sleeping bags" ready and looked at books for about an hour.

Then we did a bear hunt. We hunted all over the house. It was fun. Eventually the girls decided they were nice bears and brought them back to their tent to snuggle.

After playing in the tent for some time, we had indoor 'smores. yum yum! Noelle approved!

Melanie did some camping worksheets. She really enjoyed them and did an awesome job (if you ask me!)

And we ended the fun with a memory game. This was fun. We'll have to play it again!

All in all, our indoor camping experience was a lot of fun. Melanie is already asking when we can go "camping" again.
