Mom Camp 2018

Thursday was my kids’ last day of school so I officially have a very full house for the next eight weeks. Not that I don’t love having my kids home (I mostly kinda sorta do…), but I started day dreaming about what a week of Mom Camp would look like. Take a peek at the schedule and all the different programs being offered and let me know if you’re interested!

Daily Schedule:

9-9:30 Hot Coffee Hour*

*Not to be confused with the ‘I misplaced my coffee cup so now it’s cold’ coffee hour that most of us are familiar with at home.

 

9:30-11:15 Class Time (See Class Descriptions Below)

11:15-11:30 Animal Meme and Animal Video Viewing

11:30-12:45 Lunch

Menu will contain a full range of offerings including, but not limited to, Baked Cheetos, Pad Thai, dried mango, and Coffee Heath Bar Crunch. All dietary restrictions will be considered but special attention will be given to delicacies like buffalo wings, nachos and creme brulee.

 

Between the hours of 10:30 a.m. and 8:30 p.m., the “It’s 5:00 Somewhere Beverage Station” will be available. Help yourself to chilled Prosecco, Zima, Frosé, Rosé, Bloody Marys and Sangria.

NOTE: Mom Camp is a chicken nugget, hotdog, and pizza-free environment.

 

 

12:45-1:00 Baby Meme and Baby Video Viewing

1-2:00 Manicure/ Pedicure Hour

2-4:00 Class Time (See Class Descriptions Below)

5-5:30 Facemasks

5:30-6:30 Dinner

(Because who are we kidding, we’re ALWAYS hungry during the kids’ mealtime)

6:30-8:30 “We’re Not Doing Bedtime” Social Hour

No teeth to brush, no Bears to Hunt, no glasses of water to pour
