Keeping Kids Busy in The Fall Makes Everyone Happy
As a mother of four and now a grandmother, I find that when the kids are busy doing "good things" they are happy and, if they are happy, so am I.
As parents and grandparents, we are feeling the days getting cooler, soccer will be winding down, how do we fill that time slot.
The kids are inside more and we struggle with "what to do with them". There are many activities offered right in your community!
There is a wonderful free book called The Family Guide which places an amazing resource at your fingertips! We have them at my studio, Art by You at Weirdgirl Creations at 33 Kent Street in Barrington. Feel free to pick one up.

Keeping kids involved, trying new things, exposing them to new friends and activities is an antidote for boredom. Of course at our studio we offer after-school art enrichment in October, working in wet clay, drawing and painting and paint your own pottery. In November, we will be offering a holiday gift workshop where kids will sign up to come in once a week for an hour and create hand-painted ceramic gifts! A wonderful outlet for the children and an hour free for you!
