There was much work that went into setting everything up, ordering the shirts and food, creating information packets, etc. The day finally came and everything even started on time. Once the kids were settled and had finished eating breakfast I introduced myself and started talking with them about sanitation and hygiene. I went over all of the ways to make safe water, how long to boil it, how to cover your food and why flies are bad. I went over diseases and what causes them. I talked about nutrition,safe cooking and about left overs. I spoke to them about washing your hands and how much water one should drink daily. Then we went and made a tippy tap and I had a girl and guy explain how to use it. I then educated them on how to make it and why it is important to wash your hands. It was a fantastic 2 day camp and the kids were able to take a lot from it!
