I’m still picking thread off my clothes from the kimono-making party I had with my daughter Jillian and her friends yesterday.  I posted the kimono DIY here and it was as simple as sizing down the pattern by a few inches to make it kid-size.  Summer is definitely the time to teach kids something new, something COOL.  Without the pressure of homework and sports practices, we have more hours in the day to play and plan out purposed activities.

I’m over on Modern Parents Messy Kids today talking about Taking the Time to Teach Your Kids Something New.  And I gave lots of examples, so hopefully it’ll inspire you to get out there!  Have fun!  Learn something!  (PS.  We only have a few weeks left before school starts again!)
