Summer Craft Camp- Pirates!

For our very first Summer Craft Camp, the kids made treasure boxes. We read the story "How I became a Pirate!" by Melinda Long. They got to "walk the plank" and have a peg leg race. We also played Pirate Concentration and Roll-a-Pirate. We decorated the treasure boxes with pirate stickers and jewels. They turned out really good and the kids had a great time.

The kids got to paint their treasure box black. We wore aprons so that no paint got on the clothing!

It was really hard for some of the kids.




The kids each got to decorate their box however they wanted.

You should have put the picture of Caleb in the peg leg race where he's flat on the ground! My kids had so much fun! They can't wait to come again!
