I've been the Activity Day leader for about 3 years now, and every June, per the girls' request, we try to have a garden party. Unfortunately, last year, every time we tried to plan this, the weather wouldn't cooperate.
Most of these girls will soon be moving up to Young Women's so I felt like they needed a memorable send off...
I decided to have them make fairy pots--
They learned the proper way to add drainage stones at the bottom of their pots and how to check to see if a plant is root bound or not. They also learned about the right way to water.
I wish I would have taken a close up of the final product! Dang!
The chickens added to the ambiance with their feathery selves!
After the pots were completed, we ended the activity with refreshments: cream puffs, lemonade and fresh fruit...
This was our last activity before summer begins!
