2007 Toddlers Club Preview (Photos coming soon!)

The selection of kits for the coming year is always one of my favorite things. I have completed the preview for January -- September 2007. October through December will probably happen closer to the end of the year, as there are always great new things available at that time of year, and I would probably change them anyways. Please know that because we do the selections so early in the year, some kits are not always available when the time comes to order them, and substitutions may have to be made. Sometimes it just turns out that we find something we find irresistable later in the year, and we swap things around for that reason.We are including some great new themes this year!

This preview should give you a really good idea of the things to come in 2007, we hope that your child will enjoy them! We test all these kits before they ever hit the mail to your child, and you can always find hints, tricks, and suggestions here on this blog. Happy Crafting!

We do our best to find fun crafts that will expand your toddler's experiences, and that will be enjoyable for you both. Please note that we do not intend the toddler kits to be at a level that a child at this age could complete them by themselves. The kits are meant to be a fun activity shared by you both!

January Kits







Happy New Year! We hope to have the 2007 preview available here on the blog very soon. In the meantime, here are the January kits. (These will be shipping no later than January 6, due to weather related delays in our inventory arrival this month). Our theme this month is "Winter Wonderland". Here in Colorado we've received over two feet of snow in the past two weeks, so the theme certainly seems appropriate to us!

Sand Art is always a favorite of ours, and we thought these were great. The Kids and Toddlers clubs are both receiving this project this month.
