A cool summer activity at Holiday Hill Day Camp in Mansfield CT. is arts and crafts. There are always welcoming faces at the craft room. Located in the base of the big barn in a cool quiet corner, the time to work on crafts is a time to socialize and pick up new skills.
This past week when I stopped by arts and crafts there was a lot going on. Friendship bracelets
and tie dye in particular!
What color does your best friend love?
