Beavers Spring Sleepover: March 1–2

March 2, 2025

The Beavers had their first night away of 2025 on Saturday, and for some, it was their first night away ever! They started off with some games to learn about healthy eating, then rolled up their sleeves and made their own pizzas and vegetable salads. Everyone got to choose the ingredients they wanted on their pizzas, but they had to try something they didn't like in their salad. They did a really great job with all their food, and it looked like they enjoyed the end result. Some even had a second pizza! After supper, the Beavers took turns coming to wash up a plate and a bowl while everyone got their tents and beds set up, and curled up to watch Ratatouille.

The Beavers are busy eating all the delicious salad and pizzas they made for themselves.The pizzas made by the Beavers look delicious and the Beavers look pretty pleased with the job they've done.This Beaver is paying lots of attention to making sure his plate gets nice and clean.The Beavers are getting their beds set up for sleeping.

Sunday morning after breakfast, the Beavers packed up all their kit, took the tents down and got washed up for the next bit of cooking. First they mixed up their chocolate mug cakes (which they all decided to refer to as mud cakes) and while those cooled, they came outside to sing a campfire song and toast marshmallows over the coals afterwards. S'mores for second breakfast, only at Beavers!

The Beavers are taking their kit out of their tents and packing up. It's incredible how much they can spread it over the floor!The Beavers are all lined up away from the campfire to sing "Fire's Burning", their choice of song.These two Beavers are enjoying their S'mores in the morning sunshine.There seems to be a lot of marshmallow on this Beaver's face, but thankfully most of her S'more has made it into her mouth rather than all over her!

Another great sleepover for the Beavers; they're now looking forward to summer Group Camp!
