Checking In

We are taking a brief pause in our posts to rethink some things during this time of closing our doors.

We'll be back with some new summer plans. That perhaps we can adapt if we end up with no in-house programs.

How do I get teens to my programs?

So this questions pops up ALL THE TIME & is definitely worth exploring. I was doing a presentation a few weeks ago when this question was asked again and I have my default responses but I have continued to think about this since then.

Summer Watch Party

I have fallen in love with Summer Watch Parties for my teen. They have minimal effort and it really incentives teens returning each week to keep watching together.

This summer we are going to watch Merlin. And I am so friggin' excited!

Summer Buy: More Boxes!

I found more awesome boxes at the Dollar Tree.

So I immediately start trying to think of something for Gingerbread Houses.

Sleeping Beauty Inspired Journal

I have been watching a lot of Fairy Tales/Fantasies for inspiration for this summer. Like A LOT.

And I'm loving every minute of it.

Sometimes inspiration comes in the most unlikely of places. Cue Sleeping Beauty.

This is one of my absolute favorites and I adore it. And it has given me one of my favorite craft ideas for this summer.  I love the opening book.

Isn't that lovely? As Baby BookGeek says, "I NEED IT!"

DIY Mirrors

 I love the use of mirrors and reflections throughout fairy tales and mythology.
