Kids & Cultures Around the World!
(Session I)

You wouldn't have recognized the Oberlin Depot! The campers had crafts of all sorts--origami, maracas, sugar skulls (for Día de los Muertos), German-style advent calendars, dragons (for Chinese New Year), and more--all over the place. Local world-travelers also loaned the program some great "items of material culture" to create a mini-museum right in-house! Campers took part in all sorts of activities and games, and at the end of the week presented a Vietnamese water puppetry performance!

Group shot of campers plus a guest presented on India.
