June 29, Tuesday

In the morning we had a planning meeting. Before the morning exercises I learned three songs with children.

After the morning exercises we had a Bible lesson. We had the game "What is my friend?" then learned a new song. After the lesson we played a game. We threw out the candies at the territory of the camp and children from each group had to find them all. This game was not only entertaining; it had to develop obedience and patience. According to the rules, when a child found a candy he couldn't pick it but had to call the rest of the group (each of them had a signal) and one of the leaders to "register" the found candy.

After the game we watched a movie, then had lunch. After lunch we had crafts. Then we had the meeting and children went home.
