Coloring Pages- print at home and have fun!

​

 Create your own drawing that captures the one-of-a-kind experience of being at Tall Pines.  Crayons, paint, markers- whatever supplies Mom gives you permission to use.   Have a parent email picture of it! 

​

Just got back from Tall Pines trip?  Make a video or digital picture album for a show and tell with your family or friends.  For extra fun, make a

commericial with a jingle, script, or play with app features you may have for adding props and background.  

​

Coming to Tall Pines soon?   Start planning out your trip:  Help Mom and Dad make a list of what to pack, sort out your tacklebox, make a list of food and games/books you want to bring, and plan where on the Wabaskang you want to cast!  Using the map on Fishing Page as a reference, draw your own version of Wabaskang with stars on where you want to go; don't forget to mark where Tall Pines is!

​

 It takes 10,000 casts to master the craft.  Get an early start practicing casting in your backyard!  Place a hoola hoop/jumprope or some kind of target a set distance away and cast your fishing rod (use a practice weight on end- no hooks!).  Try and land weight in target zone.  Change distance and challenge family members to best out of 20 contests!

​

Make your own fishing game and challenge your sister, brother, grandparent, or a neighbor- you get to make up the rules.

​

Explore topics on Youtube such as: 

How to tie a fishing knot?  How to cast an open-face reel?  How to put a worm on the hook?  How to fish with a jig and minnow?

For those more experienced kids, explore topics such as:

  How to properly release a big fish?  How to handle a northern pike?  How to properly hold a walleye?  What tackle is best to use fishing for ______?   Why is fish conservation important?  I want to learn about walleye

​

Got a project for school?  Use your new knowledge in a presentation, making a video, writing a report, or making a GoogleSlide to teach your classmates or teacher!  And of course, you can show Bridget at camp for a prize.
