This week, like the last, was a very short week. I worked Monday, Tuesday, and half a day on Wednesday. Tuesday was the only day that was busy because we went back to Stuart Baptist Church to make hand soaps, lotions, and shampoo. On Monday and Wednesday, it was slow and the majority of the time I spent working on the AI spreadsheet. In my spare time I would run errands and do some things for Tamica like moving files and shredding more papers.
On Tuesday, we picked up all the materials to make the soap on the way to the church. The adults who were in charge of the camp split the kids into two groups to keep the activity from getting to crowded. So the first group of kids got to start making lotion while the other group got to play outside on the playground. To start with, the kids would get a base of a white lotion. They would then come to my table where they would pick a color and a scent to mix in their lotion. After stirring it all together they would have their own homemade lotion. Then they moved on to the hand soap, it was much like the lotion where we poured them a base solution, but they would get the choice of a color and scent to go in it. The final soap that we made was shampoo. Just like the lotion and hand soap, the shampoo was made exactly the same. Add the color and scent to the base solution that was given to them and they get their own bright incense to use at home. After the first group was done, they were switched up and the second group came in to make soap while the first group went outside to play. The kids really enjoyed this and it was really fun to watch the kids enjoy such a neat activity.
Although nothing much went on this week, I was able to enjoy watching the kids have fun making soap that will help them improve and exercise overall hygiene.
