bjornwildeSo last night my family and I went over our calendars and I've discovered the theme for this years Camp-O-Rama for my daughters GS troupe is Camelot. So of course my wife turned to me and basically said, "So what patterns are they going to make?" which evolved into "What projects are they going to make/do/sew"? I am thrilled for this chance as I am firmly in the camp of teaching girls that Princesses save themselves. Only problem is not all the girls would buy into this. So I turn to you my lovely wicked smart and crafty f-list for ideas. This is for the middle of October so there's plenty of prep time. As to what ideas I'm hoping for, well easy to make sewing patterns, craft projects, activities, games and the like.
What I've already thought of:
Patterns - T tunic (can be made for "knights" or "princesses" or "princess knight"), the classic cone princess cap, circle cloaks.
Activities - Making PVC bows and swords. Maybe cardboard shields they can paint heraldic crests on?
Games - Archery, capture the flag with sword battles, stories
What say you my awesome peeps? Some (I swear I don't mean this badly) girl games might be good as well as not all the girls are physically active...think more princess than knight.
