Our organization runs after school enrichment programs. We do not offer a day care program as there is already one at the elementary school. Fortunately a number of parents want more than a day care program for their kids. However, if you run the same programs over and over the kids will get tired of it no matter how good the program is.
Recently we brained stormed some new ideas. Our sports programs are very popular. What we needed were some ideas for indoor programs. One of those ideas was Spa and Relaxation.
Here are the scheduled activities:
- Candle Making
- Soap Making
- Lotion Making
- Creating relaxation sounds using different instruments
- Learning some basic massage techniques
- Spa Treatments
- Yoga
- Breathing Exercises
- Manicures
- Pedicures
The kids would take turns giving each other manicures, pedicures and massages.
There are some great books on soap making, lotion making and candle making as well as kits that you can get from a craft store or Amazon. There are a number of things you can make from beeswax, including lip gloss.
We won’t actually offer the program until the fall. I’ll let you know how it goes. If you have any other ideas for the Spa class please let me know in the comments below. Thanks.
