Session 3: Curiosity Camp:
We are having a great time getting familiar with West African culture this week at PJS. Children have been able to explore maps, write out their wonders about West Africa, and make some jewelry. We explored some of the reasons West Africans use masks, watched some wooden masks being made, and worked on paper masks of our own. On Wednesday, children went to the kitchen to make Nigerian meat pies and vegetable pies. While delicious smells came from the kitchen, other children were learning some African dances down the hall. All in all, a busy and exciting week to be at camp.
