St. Philip Preschool - Myrtle Beach

Day 3&4 of Mermaid & Pirate Camp: we read “Oona and the Shark,” “Swap!,” “Daniella and the Pirate Girls;” stamped seaweed in our oceans, painted parrots for our pirates, walked the plank to fish for treasures, explored an ocean bin of water beads & merperson treasures, made starfish, created our own pirate map and of course ate pirates b***y for snack. We had such fun at camp🏴‍☠️🧜Happy summer!

Our first 2 days of Mermaid & Pirate Camp have been filled with fun! We have been painting oceans & bubbles, building pirate ships & making mermaid tails, creating necklaces and building a playground for our merpeople. We read “Hey Water” and “The Pout-Pout Fish” and for snack we’ve eaten like pirates (goldfish) and like merfolk (crunchy coral= veggie straws & rated seaweed!). Can’t wait for our next 2 days!

Happy 4th of July! We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful weekend ❤️🤍💙

Enjoy the little things 🐥🐞🦖🌱🌻

Day 3&4 at camp we painted bird nests, decorated eggs, filled our nests to make them cozy and added our eggs, searched for worms, more play dough (we can’t get enough!!), painted birds…or whatever felt good, got to make art with tempera sticks, we listened to different bird calls from a very cool book and of course enjoyed some beautiful time on the playground. So much fun this week! Cant wait for our next camp in July 🌻Happy summer!

All About Birds Camp Day 2: After spending a beautiful sunny morning on the playground we built our snack (nests with shredded wheat & pretzel sticks & mini marshmallows for eggs). We painted birds & had tools to add texture & patterns, we ate the middle of an orange & used the rind as a bowl to stuff with bird seed, we explored our seed bins, created with play dough, and looked through & colored the pages of our own backyard birds book. Today we talked about what is a bird, that they don’t all fly, have different beaks for different food & all birds lay eggs. We read: Bird Builds a Nest.

Our little birds all built their own nest today for snack with shredded wheat and pretzel sticks. When their nest was ready, they got to add their eggs (mini marshmallows!).

Day 1 of all About Birds Camp- lots of fun was had! We painted with feathers, made a bird feeder with Cheerios, explored a sensory bin of bird seed, had a drawing table & a play dough table, had some free play with animals & blocks & magna-tiles, read Mel Fell, and of course got some good playground time in before the rain!

It’s always hard to believe when a school year comes to its end. We have loved seeing the friendships made and the growth of our Owls, Frogs & Bees.

Water Day is always a favorite 💦💙
