CUPCAKE! |
Last Friday was Senior OSC's first In-Day of the school year and we started off with a big bang; or at least a big mess! Everyone spent the morning digging into our GIANT pile of cardboard boxes to build whatever their imagination could create. Soon the gym was filling up with cars, planes, doghouses, rocket ships, and more. There was even a giant cupcake!
After lunch we prepared for Home Depot's visit. Everyone was super excited to see what they would bring for us to build. Soon Josh, Nick and his team from Home Depot had set up 45 hammers and goggles. 45 OSC children sat eagerly in their orange Home Depot aprons while Josh gave a brief explanation of the project; a fire department airplane.

There were lot's of instructions to follow
when it came to constructing a plane. |
Finally he told everyone to open their kits and have at it. Soon the room was filled with the banging of 45 hammers and the occasional "where's my wheels", or "I think my plane is upside down." Despite some of the set backs, little planes were taking shape all over the multi-purpose room. Once everyone was finished and cleaned up we said our thank you's and good byes to Josh and his Home Depot team. For the rest of the afternoon we saw some very creative play with the new toys everyone had built!
Take a look at some of our creations from an exciting Built It Day!!!!
Take Care,
Carolyn
