Happy Campers!

This week O is attending Camp Invention. This is a fabulous program through the Inventor's Hall of Fame in Akron, being hosted at his elementary school. It was really hard to narrow it down, but here are his top three favorite things about camp from yesterday:

1. Planet ZAK with Mrs. Machalec, a super-fun fourth grade teacher at his school. Campers had to to create a shelter from acid rain when they crash-landed on the imaginary Planet ZAK. Mrs. Machalec told them to "trash the classroom" in order to accomplish this task, thus securing her place at #1.


2. Spills & Chills with Mrs. Shriver, another favorite teacher at his school. They got to work in teams to invent ways to make skateboards safer. So cool!


3. Take-Apart Items with one of our favorite people in the whole entire world, Mrs. Bonner. She is a first grade teacher at O's school, plus a friend from church, and is loads-o-fun. Each camper had to bring a non-working electrical item that they get to disassemble (real tools!) and use the parts to create something new (it won't work, but they won't care!)
   

And this was just the tip of the iceberg-o-fun had at Camp Invention yesterday! Here's a picture of O & friends getting ready for more fun this morning...
