Summer is in full swing and so are summer camps! My son's preschool is offering various week-long programs and this year I'm helping out with a few of them. Last week was Cooking Camp, but seeing as the children were all two to five years old in age, and letting little ones play with fire or operate stoves is highly frowned upon by the authorities, our "cooking" involved a lot … [Read more...] about Pick Your Power(Balls!)
