Whether you ticked off every challenge right from Week One, or jumped in for a few activities along the way - we've absolutely loved seeing all of your creations and it's totally brightened up our summer! For Week Five’s challenge, we handed the microphone over to YOU and got you campers to create your very own mini podcasts!
