Pinwheels

One of several crafting opportunities for kids, Pinwheels will allow kids the opportunity to put multiple skills, such as measuring and cutting, to the test, in addition to opportunities to learn some new skills for their crafting tool belt. In this session we will be making a pinwheel. It will be an opportunity to recreate or introduce a simple pleasure from your childhood to your children. Session A of Pinwheels will be Saturday April 9th from 2:30 to 3:30, and Session B of Pinwheels will be Saturday April 30th from 2:30 to 3:30. All supplies are included. This class is open to ages 5 and up. Young kids may need a little help from their parent with some steps. Participants under 10 will need to be accompanied by an adult. If you and your child would like to both participate, two tickets must be purchased. There is a minimum of 5 participants and a maximum of 16. If the minimum is not met, participants will be refunded.  About Molly Nelko: A native of Mobile, AL, Molly Nelko has joined Kentuck’s staff as our Programming Assistant!
