Southworth Camp Fire

By -



Our First Two Camp Fires of the Year!
We had a great time collecting sticks, crumpling paper and watching the fire.  Before lighting our first fire we discussed fire safe.  The kids were all very careful around the fire and excited to watch the popcorn pop.  Sadly, due to the lack of rain, we were able to have another fire until today, but today we were right back at it and made apple sauce over the fire.  We had such a fun time building the fire, cutting the apples, watching them cook, running the boiling apples through the food mill, and best of all... eating the apple sauce!

We learned about what they eat, where they live, and how they shed their skin as they grow. The highlight of the day was the very funny puppet show and getting to touch the snake. Snake Bingo What do garter snakes eat? Through the puppet show and the Bingo game, the students learned that garter snakes prey on mice, fish, frogs, crayfish, snails, slugs, and more. Snake Skin When snakes grow, they shed their skin. Snake Habitat Game The REAL thing!!
