  64. Hi Rachelle,
    I am a Grandma looking for Christmas presents for 2 grand girls aged 8 and 6 who are very talented artists for their ages. They are not being taught cursive in school, but they love to write in whatever cursive they invent.
    I am wondering if the book you recommended by Eleanor Winters is age appropriate and also need more defined information about the pen or ‘nib’ (as it seems to be called) to give them to start up. These girls have NOTHING yet, so I want to start them off with appropriate beginner things that will encourage and inspire them.
    As their Grandma I won’t be able to supervise or encourage them daily, but need to find tools they can start out with.
    Can you help?
    Thanks,
    ‘MamaJane’

  65. Hi Rachelle,

  66. Was looking on pintrest for school project and I love your ideas.
    Thanks again
    Tammy

  68. I’m a grand-ma and I love doing any kind of crafts with my 3 1/2 year old grand-daughter. I’m sure you can imagine how much she enjoys it as well so I was so happy when I stumbled upon a recipe on how to make your own paint. I can’t wait to start getting the newsletters & start looking around. Thanks Tania

  69. Finally, I have become a grandma… Three beautiful little girls…4 mo, 2 and 3 years old. Being a crafter at heart and a collector of interesting little bits and bobs, I need to learn how to make the expression of my little ones’ hearts more attainable. Many opportunities of creative expression have been eliminated from the schools these days. I would like their visits to grandma’s to be full of hugs, kisses, Love and wonderful creative hours of play.

    you can earn additional bucks every month because you’ve got
    high quality content. If you want to know how to make extra money, search
