Crafting Camp for Kids with Casey

08/03/2018

It was a fun week with my NHE girls at our art camp! I learned so much about these sweeties! I seriously have the best job in the world.

Today was so much fun as the campers designed their own sewn felt emoji/ animal. They were working so meticulously, so most of the stuffed pieces will be finished tomorrow.

This is a very special group of girls to me- I teach these young artists during the school year at the school I work at! A very helpful room-mom set this all up with other interested parents, and she hosted it at her house. I love my job at school, but it seemed so laid back and easy to work with a small group of all girls, with a much longer time frame to work in (2.5 hours versus 45 minutes!). Can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!

This week we’ve been making slime, aluminum foil/ texture board paintings, shaving cream marbled prints, felt emoji pillows (and other felt characters), and air dry clay animals. Tomorrow the campers will paint their clay animals, and find out their last surprise project! Yesterday we were having so much fun we didn’t even take a snack/ playground break because they wanted to keep making felt pillows 🤓 Today I made sure we took time to get outside for a few minutes to stretch our legs and play some games. 2.5 hours goes by fast!

Here are a few of my favorite projects I have worked on with my students, some scenes from my classroom, and there is one from a painting event I did with some of my Kindergarteners.
