Luke's bad summer camp

Luke is at the Louisville Science Center for a dinosaur camp this week. I am deeply disappointed - It's a really expensive coloring book camp. I've talked to the summer camp director twice. Unfortunately, I wasn't joking about the coloring pages - printed off the Internet, today with a bonus word search. The dinosaur info is very basic so he hasn't learned anything new in the last 3 days. I expected interactive activities and more sophistication, but it's been dull arts & crafts with a dino theme. He learned a lot more in Indianapolis with the ca omputer simulation of dino body construction and their wonderful exhibits.

What a mess. I'll keep monitoring, but I will write a formal complaint to the Executive Director and Education Director of the museum. A friend of mine suggested that we could put together a fantastic dinosaur camp, but I don't think my schedule has a good T-Rex-size gap.
