Ciao, Yak Travelers! Today Buddies campers got to learn about Italy. Did you know Italy is close to the size of Arizona? The campers thought that was interesting. Campers talked about Venice and how there are no roads. Instead, people travel in boats. They thought it would be fun to travel in a boat! Another fun fact we talked about was how much pasta people in Italy eat. The average Italian eats around 55 pounds of pasta a year! So today we made pasta salad. The campers had

What a wonderfully warm Wednesday! We had a fun morning meeting with Miss Sara and Miss Haley before we headed to Play class. Miss Elise helped us move our bodies with a game of toss the bean bag and snowballs into the basket! If we didn’t make a basket, we learned that’s OK and we can always try again! It also was great way for us to practice waiting and taking turns. We finished off class with our favorite big parachute activity. We practiced holding only one handle and
