Friday 5 July:
This morning on the way I meet
Latszi will buy breakfast for everyone, so I help to carry the package towards
the last day of camp.
After breakfast every group. The day
begins with our service superman with Gergö I decided today to make the game
"factor" in French version, with Gergö as a translator, after 10
minutes in French they present me the Hungarian version.
Once finished this game, we're in
for a big game under the guidance of David, two teams, two camps, a
"treasure" between the two scattered everywhere. . and a prison.
Aim of the game, picking up to the
room and back to his camp, we have the opportunity to steal the enemy camp but
for that we must not make us catch on returning with our booty in our camp.
In case we are caught, three choices
available to us duel, scissors paper stone, fighting inch or so in the first
shaking hand touching the other with her index finger. (finger)

| Day 5 |
After 1 hour of play, we have
collected the booty, unfortunately my team lost, but what a super fun game. .
Then today small theatrical
spectacle, the story of a merchant goose and a thief who always ends up taking
batons. .
Here is the lunchtime soup again
entered the last of this week.
Once finished the dishes and tidy
the kitchen is left for storage of the camp, and the preparation of taste and
decorating outside for presentation to parents.
Small party of dodgeball and parents
begin to arrive, a little taste, the presentation of the film made during the
camp and show the shadow of three little pigs to provide parents .
It is 18h are closed gates of the
camp. . .
Throughout this week I have had the
pleasure of working with the leaders smiling and full of joy for children,
despite the fact that I do not speak Hungarian properly and that children and
especially leaders do not speak English, and I knew I learned to understand
besides verbal language. Throughout this week I was also able to discover and
learn many animation techniques, and activities that I did not know.
And having learned how to talk and
talk without having discovered these new techniques and activities allow me
probably be better for my future projects with the children ...
Thank you all and all for this week
with you was great.
