Day 2 of Camp Tonsofun was Canyon's Day.
He found these adorable Haribo Mario gummy candies at Edeka the other day & wanted them to be his special treat for Camp Tonsofun. He wrote individual notes for each of his siblings & drew pictures of their favorite Mario characters for them.
When the all the kids finished reading for 30 minutes that day, he hid his treats next to the bookshelf.
SO CUTE!
Today's big chore was the laundry/garbage room. This room gets messy really fast with all the laundry we do & all the garbage we have to sort through & recycle here in Germany. Did you know that Germany has 5 garbage cans? We have to sort ALL 5 every single day.
We have:
Bio - basically a compost pile of food
Gelb Sack - plastics, aluminum, recycleables
Paper - cardboard & boxes, paper, etc.
Glass - glass sorted by color: brown, white, green
Restmüll - basically everything else
We also have a clear bag of Pfand plastics too. In germany if you save your plastic bottles from soda/juice/water bottles, you get 25 Euro cents for each one your return to the store.
The kids spent a lot of time organizing all our garbage bags, cleaners, laundry soaps, etc.
We washed windows, doors, & walls too.
Lorien LOVES to clean the fridge. She took everything out, deep cleaned all the shelves, then re-organized everything again.
All CLEAN.
For Canyon's activity we worked on his Mario diamond painting. The kids love doing diamond paintings.
For his baking treat he wanted to make brownies.
And for his special dinner he had Southwestern Pasta Salad, veggies (mushrooms are his favorite food), & brotchen.
Day 2 was a HUGE success!
