Second Attempt

My stock of goodies is slowly building. I feel like I've got hats and zipper pins down, so this weekend I think I'm going to tackle a scarf or maybe a bag. Oh yes, and I have been been working on that zipper pin tutorial. I suppose it will all depend on my mood come Saturday afternoon.

Saturday morning is my first "Super Science Saturday." I've invited all the island preschool and kindergartners down to school for two hours of science fun. We're going to make worms, play with homemade snow, explore with magnets and make rainbows. I hope the kids have as much fun as I hope they will. I'll be sure to let you know how it goes. Which reminds me, I need to get the parents to sign photo releases...

Hi Liz,
I love, love, love your hats! Are they going to be available for purchase? I'm ready to buy!
As for the Science event-how cool is that. I teach high school English and love it when i have the opportunity to do enrichment events with my students. My current project is called The Creative Writing Crew. we meet weekly to write short stories, poetry, song lyrics, basically what ever the spirit moves us to do and I love every minute of it.
I'll be sure to visit again this weekend.
Have a wonderful Wednesday,
Diane

That sounds like great fun. I might have to try the worms with my three boys. Maybe the atomic version.
