Handicrafts

On Fridays we enjoy a variety of classes at a local charter school. This last Friday I noticed another mom making a beautiful rug that I thought would be fun to do for handicrafts. Handicrafts should be teaching your child/ren skills that they will use into adulthood, or lasting hobbies. It is not just making something from a kit that looks like junk to begin with. However, this is an individualized topic and will vary from family to family.
