The Cookie Monsters can't believe the summer is halfway over! Each day is packed with fun and exciting activities. The campers have become great swimmers, as some of them have started to go into the pool without their floaties. Sometimes, we go into the pool with the 6/7 Boys and Girls, which is another opportunity for them to interact with other groups in the camp. In Jewish Culture, we have learned different Hebrew songs and played Purim bingo. In Gym, we did relay races and played Duck, Duck Goose, which is a favorite of the Cookie Monsters. In Drama, they learn how to act out different emotions and characters. They have also been working very hard on their routine for the Drama show at the end of the summer. On Fridays, we have been going on short trips such as the New York Hall of Science Playground, and cooled down with Ralph's Ices. Last week, we went to the Green Meadows Farm, where the children went on a hay ride, had a chance to feed different animals, and even got to milk a cow. Yesterday, we went to Laser Bounce, where we played arcade games and went in the bounce house. The Cookie Monsters love going to Valley Stream State Park for our barbecues. We are looking forward to more fun activities and trips in the upcoming weeks!
The camper of the week is Samantha. One of the children had trouble putting on his book bag, and Samantha showed him how to put the straps on both of his shoulders; it just goes to show that you are never too little to help out a fellow camper!
