Two days down. But whose counting.
So yesterday was the first day and Woah was it hectic and speedy. Everything was speedy, which made me have to be speedy. So my role is the baking leader and I teach the kids not only to bake but about cleanliness and safety too. They listened pretty well for a short span of attention they gave me and on the menu was Chocolate Chip Cookies. mmmm.
But not so long after I had to get to Quest club, a part of the day where you spend some time with fewer kids. The older girls I had didn't really like what I wanted to do at first, but none the less it ended with some feisty "I-B tackle" with the boys' group. Then a superb rush back to the kitchen for a second round of baking class, but this time the kitchen was filled with hotdogs because it was the first round of lunch (Camp Peace has 2 lunches, due to 106 kids in it) . So it was really crazy and lots of clean up, clean up, and more clean up afterwards.
Then the day just seem to end after four carts of grocery shopping and $600 spent.
Today was better, it was pretty steady too since we had our first ever trip day, and my first ever out of Vancouver so off to Surrey!
Destination : Al Rocha "Christians for Conservation" (basically a super environmental place)
The kids went through 5 stations from learning about compost and animals to pond creatures and bird watching. The grossest was finding a big fat red worm in the dirt they got. I got so squirmy and the kids were like WICKED. 8-) I'm a wimp.
Although the kids tested my patience at times when they were disobedient, I made it through and the cuteness of these kids made up for the odds & ends. Thank the Lord.
FUNKY CHICKEN.
