American Girl Doll Camp

I can't believe we are over half way through the month of May! Summer is fast approaching & I hope you are finding a lot to do with your sweet cherubs! Remember I am offering an art camp in June ~ But if your sweetie isn't interested in that ... I am also hosting a week long, in-depth FUN study of the American Girl dolls!!!!

From July 18-22, I will be hosting an American Girl doll camp. This camp will be from 9:00 - 12:00 for girls ages 4-10. The cost for this camp will be $125 and includes all activities & projects. I am setting a limit of 10 girls and have 4 signed up already so act fast!! I will require payment by July 1 in order for me to adequately prepare. While I cannot make up any sessions your daughter may miss, I will be more than happy to provide you with a list of our activities & the necessary supplies for the missed day, in case of an emergency.

If your daughter has an American Girl doll (or two or more) she may bring one each day and/or she may dress up as each day's time period (a schedule will be mailed to you 2 weeks prior to camp). Each day we will read a short selection from one of the AG books, study that time period through music & technology, make an art project pertaining to that time period & that specific AG doll, learn vocabulary for that time period, & enjoy a snack each particular AG doll would have eaten (within reason! Don't worry ~ we won't be eating Buffalo! ;o) ). If there is a movie based off of that character, we will also try to watch a clip from that movie.

The American Girl doll series has always been popular but has gained in its popularity over the past 5 years. These character dolls are not only a wonderful way of making history come alive, but a wonderful way to expose your girls to different lifestyles & struggles. The AG store hype hasn't hurt this gain in popularity either though!!! I will not only focus on each AG doll, but I will also tie in the scriptures regarding a principle that doll learns.

I am slating spots NOW so please let me know if you are interested ~ I am VERY EXCITED about this camp & I hope your daughter will be, too! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me and when you are ready to reserve your daughter's spot. let me know that, too! scritzer711@gmail.com
