Creativity at Its Best




Friends of ours told us about a bike/craft shop where kids can go after school and during the summer to work on bikes and or do crafts. The kids had a lot of fun this summer at the shop. Mackensey did a lot of sewing projects and Conor had to take a bike a part piece by piece in order to learn how to build one. We have started going back twice a week, and on Tuesday Conor came home with his first built bike. He surprised his sister by making her a bike. He only had the frame to work with and had to piece together other parts and even do a little bit of welding. Mackensey made a doll and clothes and designs to go with it. They have really enjoyed this shop and are learning so many great things. Mackensey and Conor are going to paint the bike and make it look new.
