KidsAct! #3 – First Day!!!

Today was our first day of session #3 of KidsAct! and we could not be more thrilled to start off camp!

We began the day with some fun get to know you games, including “Name and Gesture,” “This or That,” and my personal favorite, “SPLAT!” Our campers also found themselves getting to know two of the songs that will be sung in their show; You’ve Got a Friend in Me from Toy Story and The Rainbow Connection from The Muppets. Having learned both these songs in just under 45 minutes, the campers exceeded all expectations and sounded lovely in their songs!

After a nice, long lunch outside, the students came back and learned about “yes, and…”: the first and most important rule of improv! Using this guideline, we were able to play some fun-filled improv games such as “Follow the Leader” and, a camp favorite, “What Are You Doing?”

Then, our campers began devising. We started by asking questions related to rainbows and then expanded to discussing their dreams, hopes, and wishes!

We can’t wait to continue our work (and fun) tomorrow; don’t forget, it’s POOL DAY!!!
