GEOLOGY CAMP HIGHLIGHTS - MONDAY

We failed to take pictures earlier in the day but we did remember to catch a few photos from our walking field trip to observe rocks in the neighborhood.

Katie draws rocks she finds in her observation journal.

What observant kids!

Taking a stroll. Observing rocks that decorate houses and yards!

Testimonials

"Thank you!...My daughter really LOVED owl camp! She still talks about it and has a new found love for owls."
-Nicole S.

"My 2 girls did bug camp this year and had SO much fun! They have continued to talk all about bugs even weeks after camp ended. They have told me a number of interesting facts about bugs and insects and are still talking about camp. Bug Camp was so much fun that we turned right around and signed up for Rock Camp. It was another great week that we are still talking about! Thanks Cristina!"
-Kristin B.

"Miss Cristina taught four of my children from 1st-3rd grade. The summer camps were so fun and educational. They got so in-depth, they became experts in whatever they were studying. She teaches them how to learn and ask questions. My kids loved each one she did during the summer."
