Group Spotlight: Nursery/Kindergarten
Written by Carrie Alterson, Group Leader
Wow, the summer is flying by but the Good Dinosaurs are having a great summer so far. The trips have been a lot of fun. On the first day of camp, we went to the movies and saw Finding Dory. The second trip was to the Jewish Children's Museum, where we learned about Jewish culture. The next trip, and I think so far the children's favorite trip, was to the aquarium. We watch the sea lion show, saw all different kinds of fish including sharks, and let's not forget the penguins.
On Mondays, we go to gymnastics and the children get to walk on the balance beam, do tumbles, and have free play as well. The children look forward to Wednesdays when the whole camp goes to Valley Stream State Park for a barbecue. Before eating the delicious hot dogs or hamburgers, we get to play in the playground. The BBQs also give the children the chance to play with the other groups in the camp.
When we are not on a trip, the children go to see the great specialists we have at camp. They show off their art skills in Arts and Crafts, as we have made great creations such as butterflies and necklaces. At the pool, they are learning how to swim. In Jewish Culture, the children have baked cookies and are learning different Hebrew words. At drama, the children are great at using their imagination. We all look forward to more fun at Hillcrest!

Each week, we will be providing a Group Spotlight for one or two different groups in camp, and will ultimately highlight all of our groups by the end of the summer!
