Welcome to the new Kid's Night blog!

Family crafts and the Holiday Party!

Next week, (November 29th) will feature some family related crafts. You can bring in a family photo or photos that you don't need back and we'll use it to make a craft, or you can make some Advent related crafts as we gear up for the holidays!

Also, don't forget school or dance or sports pictures for me to scan for the bulletin board.

Lastly, our first ever Holiday party that you voted for will be December 20th! I am still formulating ideas, but I'm thinking a night with music, a few easy crafts, some stories and some kind of special treat for the kids. If anyone has any ideas and/or would like to help, drop me a line!

School pictures and Pilgrim crafts!

Now that the school pics are coming back, if you haven't already brought me one, and you want to be on the "virtual Kid's Night bulletin board", bring me in a small picture from school, sports or whatever and I'll add it to the pile!

Next week (November 22nd), we'll revisit some of the Native American games we didn't get to this week and we'll add in some Pilgrim crafts and games as well!

Hope to see you there!

Painting coming up!

We had a good crowd last night, over 15 kids and a lot of turkey callers were made (and driving people crazy)

Next week (November 15th), we'll be working on Native American crafts, including totem poles, masks and more, with painting involved, so dress appropriately!

We'll also try some games that Native Americans kids may have played, adapted for the Kid's Night crowd of course!

PS- Still looking for a few more those school, dance or sports photos! I can scan them and return them if you don't have an extra. as soon as I get enough, I'll start the virtual bulletin board!

Next week we'll be talkin' turkey! (crafts, that is)

And don't forget to bring in an small school, dance or sport photo for me to add to the virtual bulletin board which I am working on for the website.

Early leftovers!

Leftovers? Yes, with Halloween yesterday and a full month of Thanksgiving ahead, I figured we'd take it easy tonight and break out some old favorites like poppets, bean monsters and whatever else we can find!

PS - So nice to see so many of you at the Burkland School Friday night! Sorry if I didn't get a chance to chit chat, but I was twisting balloons for 2 1/2 hours straight! The fundraiser was a big success, raising $5000 for the kids!
