Fort Collins Weaving Web




The Weaving Web is the best project ever for kids. It is so simple, and they really love it. Here is the skinny. You give them each a ball of the horrid acrylic yarn that seems to multiply in the bins when you are not looking. Then you tell them to act like a spider and 'weave' a web. Voila! Instant happy kids and darn fine Community Art project. Later, when you decide to take it down all you need is a pair of scissors and the project is done.

Aslan on the Move




St. Pauls Episcopal Church in Fort Collins will be holding a Summer Day Camp June 15-19th. The theme of the camp is Aslan is on the Move, a curriculum based onthe Narnia Series of Books by C.S. Lewis. We worked on props for the camp last Saturday. The kids helped make a wardrobe, lamp post and various other whimsical items from the land of Narnia. For more info on the camp you can visit the St. Paul's website here
