Although it may have looked a little cloudy today, if you ask me, it was perfect weather. A little breezy and not too sunny, it was just warm enough out today to be perfectly comfortable. We started out this morning by continuing to diligently work on our shelter, and introduced a new activity of making boats. Some kids used wood or plants that they found, while others devised a plan to string together plastic water bottles to make a flotation device. By the end of the morning there were several great boats afloat and some serious progress had been made on the shelter.
In the afternoon we played some Capture the Flag at the end of lunch, then moved into quiet time. Today most kids stayed inside due to the lack of sun, but we all still had tons of fun creating all sorts of cool arts and crafts on the porch (I even finished my bracelet). During the afternoon we offered shelter again, because some kids really love working on it, and we need to speed things up if we plan on finishing this week. We also made the porch available in a more open style: some kids made great bracelets, some kids started on wind socks, and others read or worked on sanding outside. We had a kind of mixed-weather day, but we all still had a really great time!
Remember tomorrow is Stone Soup day and Pond day, so bring towels, bathing suits, another change of clothes, goggles if you think that is something that would be fun, and food for stone soup.
