Winter Update - 04/03/2010
Throughout December the beavers continued with the Christmas theme!
We had lots of fun when a visitor came and showed how to make an edible Santa. This was made out of a walnut whip and some icing. Most of the Santarsquo;s didnrsquo;t make it out of the door; they did end up in the beavers bellies though.
We then had a Christmas games night with both colonies having lots of fun playing many different Christmas games and at the end of the night all those who had been good all year got a special visitor from Father Christmas himself!
The final week before Christmas saw beavers make an decorative angle to place in their plant pots that they had made earlier in the year and all beavers took home a nice present for their mums or dads etc.
During the Christmas holidays a lot of snow fell around Golcar and this unfortunately meant that Beavers couldnrsquo;t meet during the first two weeks of January but before long the beavers were in full swing.
The first week back saw beavers become mad scientist doing work towards their experiment badge. We made erupting volcanoes played with slime goo and made rainbows We all wore the scientist coats and mad scientist glasses!
The following week we had a joint meeting and had a craft night. The hall was packed with lots of different crafts for beavers to make and by the end of the night the beavers went away with armfuls of various crafts such as mobiles gliders coasters and key rings.
Now all the snow has gone beavers are back into full swing of things and are ready to make lots of new friends and have lots of fun!
