Kidding Around: Spring Break

Kidding Around: Spring Break: A Self-Paced Art Journaling Adventure for Kids

Taught by Tami Morrison

Looking for an inexpensive way to keep the kids busy over spring break? We're excited to introduce the first ever spring edition of Tami Morrison's popular Kidding Around art-journaling workshop! Spring break entertainment has never been so simple. This self-paced class features seven fresh daily prompts that are full of fun and imagination for your creative kiddo.

Kidding Around: Spring Break is an exercise in writing, observation, and creative expression, cleverly disguised as a playful keepsake your kids will want to create. And best of all, because it's self-paced, it starts whenever YOUR spring break begins.

Tami brings her unique brand of kid-friendly pizzazz to this class, along with a child-development degree, 15 years of teaching experience, and 26 years of "mommying." All of that adds up to plenty of tried-and-true ideas to keep kids occupied and amused!
