Potions Camp - "First Years" ages 5-8
Monday, July 29 - Wednesday, July 31, 2024
10:00 - noon each day
Day 1 – Introduction and Exploration
Explore the gardens in search of plants for our potions. You might be surprised at how many you already know. We’ll learn about where they like to grow, how they like to grow, and ways to work with them. We’ll also craft a magic wand to help us make our potions, and create a field book to store all of our new plant knowledge.
Day 2 – Sleeping Potions and crafts
Today is all about potions that help us sleep better. We’ll meet some new plant friends today and learn how they help us to relax and calm down. We’ll also make a dream pillow that brings sweet dreams, and a sleeping potion tea to help us fall asleep.
Day 3 – Healing/Helper Potions
Our final day is all about potions that help us out in some way. We’ll make a “Disappearing Sunburn” potion, a potion we can carry around in our pocket to change our day, and a “Liquid Luck” potion.
