A stimulating hour for elementary school children on days when school is not in session.
School's out for summer! Each School's Out program for children K-5 will give children the chance to try something new, fun (and maybe messy!).
Create your own fuzzy friend out of felt! Felt monsters are easy to make using either thread or glue and a bit of stuffing. Use a pattern provided or create something entirely your own. You'll need to know how to use scissors or have an adult with you who can help. If you know a bit about sewing, it will be helpful, but it isn't required.
