🎪 What a spectacular week at SICM Carnival Camp! 🎉
Our campers spent the week designing, building, and creating everything they needed for their very own carnival! From handmade games and colorful decorations to creative crafts, they worked together to bring their ideas to life before celebrating with an exciting Carnival Day complete with a bounce house and plenty of fun under the tent. 🎨
Along the way, campers enjoyed exclusive access to the museum exhibits, a pizza party, and an unforgettable trapeze workshop with @cosmos.cirque. We explored art during a special Romare Bearden workshop at the @statenislandmuseum, got everyone moving with @calpullimexicandance, and put our STEM skills to the test with Professor Sherbert`s balloon racer experiments. We also made time for outdoor play, games, and, of course, a sweet visit to Eggers Ice Cream before wrapping up the festivities. 🍦
Thank you to all of our amazing campers for a week filled with creativity, teamwork, laughter, and carnival magic.
We can’t wait to try their delicious treats in cooking camp next week! 🍽️
