I had one of those spontaneous wild ideas strike a few weeks before we left for our long visit home this summer. So I called Chelbe to see if she was on board and since she apparently let's me do just about anything... our first annual Libby/Foreman Summer camp was born.
I don't know how we did it. Each day was planned out to the max with themed activities and some coordinating meals.
Monday : Explore Parks Day
Tuesday : Water Day
Wednesday : Art Day
Thursday : Camping Day
Friday : Theatre Day
Monday Park Day!
Started off with a nature scavenger hunt at Lewisville park
A picnic lunch under this big beautiful willow tree
Our second park complete with splash pad which was perfect because it was a HOT day!
Water Day
Made some bubble snakes
Mixed up some colors in the kiddie pool
(this was a filler activity that actually kept the kids' attention for a lonnng time)
Ice boats and our foil river
The babies staying busy with their lego blocks
