Welcome to the second week of summer camp at home!
This week is all about encouraging kids to get creative exploring the Under the Sea theme.
In this week’s activity plan, you will find easy, engaging activities that will invite the kids to design a paper plate jellyfish, “rescue” small sea animals trapped in ice, and create a rainbow fish, an under-the-sea collage, and a turtle suncatcher.
