    Kids' Day

    Kids' Day is held once a month and is designed to allow children from area schools and after school programs to come to our headquarters and try out some of our neatest new sm'ARt products. The event is a hands-on experience that compliments the art education children receive in the classroom and provides a great opportunity for creativity.

    We also give the kids an exciting demonstration of how ideas make it from the minds of our brilliant designers all the way to the classroom and home craft table, including a tour of the enormous state-of-the-art warehouse where they can see firsthand where we package our products and load the trucks for shipping. This is always a highlight!

    We at Creative Hands are grateful for the chance to bring a little more creative fun into kids' lives!

    On October 15, we were joined by Ms. Steffan's 2nd grade class from North Elementary School. The kids had a great time with several Halloween projects, such as making their own unique Halloween decorations. Likewise, the "All About Me" project that made its debut last month went over so well that we revisited it with this group, and it proved every bit as popular. The day also featured a Halloween-themed bowling game, which was also a a big hit.

    Ms. Steffan's students enjoyed themselves so much, they took the time to send us thank you letters!

    On August 28, Creative Hands welcomed a great group of kids from the Leaning Tower YMCA. One highlight of the day was a new project called "All About Me," which encouraged the kids to express their personalities through visual art. The children also had an opportunity to try out an exciting new line of games called Edu-tivities, which are designed with the goal of making learning fun for kids. We are thrilled that they were such a big hit!

    On November 20th, Carrie Forystek brought her 3rd grade class from Drexel Elementary to our headquarters for Kids’ Day.

    Kids’ Day provides us with a great opportunity to see our some of our newest and most exciting Creative Hands products in action.  Likewise, the kids had a chance to strengthen their hand-eye coordination and spacial reasoning skills while expressing themselves creatively.

    The day included making and personalizing "Dangler" decorative mobiles, as well as using our Creative Hands shapes and stickers to make their very own story book.  And as always, the tour of our warehouse was a big hit!
