November Holiday Day Camp: PM Session, Tribes and Traditions

During the afternoon session we created Native American Shields.


Taking a look at Native American symbols and their meanings.


Sketching a pattern and symbol on our shields.

Aren't they cool?

Adding color using oil pastels.



Learning how to add beading.



During music we experienced stories, games and dances from a variety of Native American cultures.

Here are some of the highlights from telling the story The Legend of the Bluebonnet.



We played a fun stick passing game called Ya Ya We.



Finally we learned a native American dance from Northwestern Utah called Dust off the Wagon.
