Something strange happens in the Primary years that doesn't happen to us as adults, and it has to do with order. No, this is not the same thing as tidiness, so step aside Marie Kondo, although we share your love of containers for things that spark joy! Understanding the child's sensitivity to order is key, so join us for an episode all about how to engage your Primary child. Plus, we'll be featuring our stegosaurus plates activity from our Constellation theme Dinosaur!

In the modern world, most of us don't darn our socks because buying new ones is affordable - and because it seems daunting. But taking the time to teach your child basic sewing skills may have you rethinking your willingness to fix fabric rather than replace it by punching the buy button. With confident skills, your child will find sewing pleasant and extremely purposeful. And you only need a few materials to make it happen.

Join us for an awesome lesson on sewing. We'll be making a craft your child can gift to others or (if you celebrate) hang on their Christmas tree in the upcoming season. 

Suggested follow-ups to this activity include the FOLK and CRAFT themes: https://childoftheredwoodsmembers.com/product-category/thematic-packs/
