Crista Toler, Bisque Imports With the cold weather and winter months still to come it may seem that summer camp is far away. While it may be some time before we don our flip flops and shorts, now is the time to plan for summer camp. Many parenting magazines and local publications begin promoting camps and summer activities in February; thus parents are encouraged to begin planning their children'ÂÂs summer activities before the frost disappears from the windows! So, what can you do? Be ready! Start planning your camp activities now. Whether you offer camp for a full week or one day a week, you will need to plan your projects so that you may determine pricing for your programs. Some studios like to offer a pottery painting project and offer other craft projects that tie in with a specific theme. Such as, painting a wall plaque for the child'ÂÂs bedroom door then painting a pillowcase with fabric paint or create a mosaic picture frame and paint a dish to hold jewelry to accompany the frame on the child'ÂÂs dresser. Other studios prefer to stick with all fired arts which would allow for projects such as glass fusing, clay hand building and pottery painting. Bisque Imports offers the most innovative bisque shapes in the industry so you have a fabulous selection of products from which to choose for summer camp. In addition, we also offer a variety of other products and tools that will be helpful in planning and implementing your summer camp programs. Whatever you decide to offer in your summer camp program, it is wise to start planning now so that you may take advantage of the camp promotions that are happening in your area. Camp should be fun and can be slightly different than what you offer on a daily basis. Think outside the box and let Bisque Imports be your partner in creativity and in summer camp! We have everything you need to plan and implement your camp program! Summer Camp Project Ideas Project ideas may be found in the Resources area of our website. Visit often for fun new project ideas!
