Tuesday, we hosted a workshop on modern Macrame projects. Youth created a yarn floral hoop practicing a few knotting techniques, then created some corded feathers.

Today was Clover Kids Outdoor Adventure workshop! Our focus...all about bugs! We made keychains, painted a bug catcher house, and made fuzzy caterpillars. They had fun interacting with our Babysitting youth. But my favorite comment:

"This is fun, but next year, please no bugs."

Final day of Babysitting workshop! These 11 youth have learned a lot over the past 3 days, and today they were able to put into practice. They tested out of CPR, helped out with some Clover Kids. And finally discussed how to turn babysitting into a profitable business.
