Small chair – round 2 rounds around the chair
Sofa – need to creep to move forward
Bed – roll over from the front to the end of the bed
Slippers – according to the direction of the slippers to jump by single or both foot

After eating full in the camping, we participate in campfire ball, we can already hear music with strong rhythm from far far away.
When we approached there, we found the campfire ball is different from the usual one. We need to make our own dancing steps and remember others' motion. It's really exciting!
After dinner and the campfire ball, let's watch stars
Hey, where are those stars?
We can switch off all lights at home and get into the tent, then use a flashlight to flash on the tent, then you will see sparkling star. You can also turn it on and off then you would see the star sparkling.
When lying inside the tent, we can also pretend to be watching animals. To name some features of animals and let others to guess.
