THE BUSY PARENTS CHRISTMAS SHOPPING CAMP

THERE'S ONLY 4 DAYS LEFT! You still have presents to get, you're tired, over worked, your feet hurt and you just want some time to yourself before the big day! We've got you...and breathe. Drop your kids off at Brown & Green and take a day or two, maybe even three, and starting ticking off your 'to do' list.
Our facilitators are dedicated to help campers to:
- Build confidence, especially in a group situation
- Work as part of a team to achieve an end goal
- Arts & crafts activities
- Storytelling
- Find their voice (acting/speaking/monologues in front of a group or audience)
- Express themselves through the disciplines of theatre (dance, movement, drama & singing)
- Character development within the text of a play, book or musical
- Participate in group games which include co-ordination and motor skills exercises
As our age range is from 4-11, we will often separate into age appropriate groups. This will help us get the best result in all activities from each and every camper and make them feel comfortable.
*Please note that when booking 4 year olds, they must be turning 5 within three months and be completely independent when using the facilitaties. Please email if you need more clarification.
When weather permits, we like to spend some time outdoors at the playground, checking out the dinosaurs and feeding the swans and ducks. All kids are paired with a 'buddy' and wear hi-vis vests. Kids who do not want to take part in the dancing and singing will be given other fun activities to do with another facilitator.
