Volunteering at a kids camp, with an Australian theme, anyone have any costumer/ decoration ideas that arent $
The first thing that came to mind was the Crocodile Hunter – Steve Irwin/Animal Planet. You could do a Scavenger/Treasure Hunt – call it a “Walk About” – that wouldn’t cost much or anything at all. Depending on the age of the children at the camp you could make a map and they would have to follow it to find what was needed. You could hide stuff animals around the campsite area for them to find. In the end everyone could put the “animals” into their own habitat that you set up in a central location (Dining hall). Once the “zoo” is filled then everyone gets to enjoy a treat or get a small something like tattoos or stickers in an animal theme.
Crafts: Make rainsticks from TP or papertowel tubes that can be decorated – the ends covered with paper and filled with small beans or rice – makes a cool sound.
Another TP roll craft would be to make binoculars. Cheap and easy.
Costume Ideas: Check out the local flea markets or thrift stores to find safari like/outback clothing – hats would be great.
That’s it for now – check of course online at the various kids websites that have a ton of suggestions, printables, and how-to’s.
