Service Learning Week 2

Crane kids have been busy all over Santa Barbara County giving back to our community!

STORYTELLER PRESCHOOL  9.17.13

Today at Storyteller, there was no way we could have wiped off the grins from those kids’ faces. They were so excited to have us play with them. Mostly they wanted to play games like "Hide and Go Seek" and "Duck Duck Goose." This was the first time that we have ever been to Storyteller and we cannot wait to go back.

HEAD START PRESCHOOL 9.18.13

During our second trip to Head Start, we made treasure maps with the preschoolers and then we searched for treasure with them. We drew the treasure maps with crayons. Most of the kids at the preschool knew what a treasure map was already. We used whatever we could find in the classroom as treasure, such as stickers, balls, and other objects. The kids had a blast. We took them all around the campus. It was fun knowing where we had hid the treasures and watching the kids' faces light up when they found something.
