Neighborhood Camp

One of my friends and neighbors Aimee is super creative and super fun. She had the idea to have a little neighborhood camp.  So three of us got together and each did a day for all 6 kids.  The upside was that when the other two were doing camp, I got days off.  Which during summer can be HUGE.

Aimee went first and did an Italian theme day.

The whole group - the girls were anti-mustaches

I was day number two.  My theme was outer space.  We made a solar system, some jet packs, used the sun through a magnifying glass to pop balloons, ate some space ice cream, and did some mentos/diet coke explosions (which really is a huge stretch to call that related to outer space but we called them rockets.)

Here is the solar system and jet packs that the girls made.  It is hanging over their dresser now.

Here is a shot of the "rocket" going off

Here is the whole group - proudly showing off their diet coke bottles

The last day of camp was at Mel's house.  She did a day full of science experiments.  I don't have pictures of the activities there, but I do have a picture of Brooke wearing her tie-dyed shirt from that day.
