Cache Camp '09






We scheduled Cache's camp for a Thursday in August...one would think that we could rely on beautiful summer weather for all the outdoor, boy-type activities I had planned. It RAINED all day! Quick revamp of the activities...and many additional activities to fill in the time. We had a GREAT time! Cache loved the "Transformer" and "Cars" books that we read in the reading tent. He used "magic" paper (tracing paper) to trace his favorite part of each story in his camp journal. He designed and built his very own Transformer (boxes, paper tubes, and duct tape) and spray painted it GOLD! We made chocolate dipped pretzels in the shape of race cars, using special candy molds...very cool! And we made enough to share...purple deliciousness! I think his favorite activity was shaving cream sprayed ALL OVER the bathroom counter to mold into ocean waves, squish between fingers, and make a "mess" without making a MESS! I loved it too!
