Scavenger Hunt

This last week at Camp Jessica I gave the kids a paper bag and each a marker and a list. Each list had the same items on them. I told the kids we had to go on a nature scavenger hunt. We went out to many parks in our beautiful town of eugene and explored what mother nature has blessed us with.
As we spent many hours all over eugene we ended up finding some pretty amazing things! What a great way to spend a whole day and the kids LOVED IT!

Im Bored!!!

IM BORED!

two words that I was hearing a lot around "Camp Jessica"

so we made this ! 

we took construction  paper and made a list of things to do.

some examples are :

*painting

*Building a fort

* Bubbles

*play outside

* Bug catching

then we drew a picture that represented the task

and decorated an apple sauce jar that was in the recycling and

WaLLA!  Its the "Im bored jar"

how it works is whenever a child says im bored they can go to the jar pull one thing out and that is the task they complete. My personal rule was they couldnt put it back in and choose a different one. They could only draw another task if they completed it or if we had it planed later in the day.

  ENJOY!!!!
