Storytime at Summer Day Camp, Week 1

 My weekly storytime at a local summer camp for 5- and 6-year-olds.  It is a short storytime with a simple art project, but sometimes when it is hot outside that is about all the children need.  

 

Books:

The Monster Mac and Cheese Party by Todd Parr
On Account of the Gum by Adam Rex 

Craft activity:

Mac and cheese straw launchers - I copied some mac and cheese drawings from the book onto a paper.  Color the mac and cheese bowls.  Then fold the paper over, tape the sides, and slide a straw inside the simple envelope.  A puff of air into the straw will launch the mac and cheese into the air.
