CGI Week 6!

What an incredible week we’ve had across CGI Burbank!

In Mini Izzy, we kicked off the week with a fascinating science experiment, exploring chemical reactions.

Our beloved water slide was also back, bringing big smiles and lots of splashing fun.

On Tuesday, we continued our creative streak with tissue paper collages and cooled off again with water play.

Wednesday was Career Dress-Up Day, and we explored different jobs, made delicious mini donuts, and ended the day with even more water play.

On Thursday, we used our fine motor skills to make homemade stress balls, which the children loved playing with.

We ended the week with a joyful Friday. Campers gathered for a high-energy Shabbat party full of music and dancing, baked challah together, played Playball with Coach Anthony, and built toothpick towers in a fun edible art activity.

The Older Division had a jam-packed week of adventure and excitement. We started on Monday with a hands-on science experiment and time on the water slide to enjoy the sunshine. On Tuesday, we took a field trip to Craft Bar, where campers worked on creative projects and proudly shared their masterpieces.

Wednesday was both meaningful and fun as we visited the Ivy Retirement Home, where campers performed songs and brought smiles to the residents. In the afternoon, we headed to Kidspace Museum for a day of interactive learning and exploration.

On Thursday, we enjoyed a delicious pizza lunch at Kosher Pizza World and followed it up with a trip to Munchies, where campers chose their favorite ice cream treats.

Friday was packed with fun at the park, including a magic show that wowed the crowd, Playball games that kept us moving, and refreshing Slurpees to end the day. We gathered together for one final Shabbat party, celebrating the week with singing, dancing, and so much joy.

We can’t believe that CGI Summer 2025 is already coming to a close for our older division. It has been a summer filled with growth, friendship, and so many special moments. We are looking forward to our last two weeks of Session 3 with Baby & Mini Izzy! Wishing all our families a peaceful Shabbat and a wonderful weekend! Shabbat Shalom!
