Bienvenido, or welcome, to Spanish camp!
Today, the kids started out by introducing themselves to fellow campers through a coloring activity. Friendships were formed almost as quickly as hands got messy! This was followed by a sing-along session that taught the campers how to say basic greetings, such as “hello” and “goodbye,” in Spanish. With voices all warmed up, we moved right along to the theme of the week, The Farm (La Granja en Español). The kids enjoyed learning the Spanish words for their favorite barnyard animals! After story time and a snack, the kids went outside and played on the playground (a hands-down favorite part of the day). The day was all wrapped up with a craft, where the kids made pigs (in spanish, cerdos) out of plastic bottles and tissue paper.
Tomorrow, the kiddos will finish their pigs and learn more spanish words! A great day overall.
