Poofas: Popping In to Lend a Hand

Local author Kerry Bober reads from her new children’s book POOFAS. Kids will have a chance to get their pictures taken with cut outs of some of the characters or write and illustrate there own POOFA stories.
Come join me in meeting the POOFAS, as they share their POOFA-POWERS and take us into their world of helping kids! POOFAS are positive-thinking thought bubble creatures that help kids handle stress and develop healthy coping skills. By POOFAS sharing their POOFA-POWERS with us, they help us to understand that these powers are already in each and everyone of us! POOFAS can act as valuable teaching aides, therapeutic aides and/or parenting tools.

Winter Break Kids Camp

Ok parents…I’m here to help you out over the winter break! Here’s my plan….a two week camp offering that you can pick and choose what days you need or want. This allows the parents that have to work over this break a cool place for their kids to hang out, besides your office floor hooked in front of a tablet (this was once me).

You can sign up for the full two weeks if needed, or you can just do a few days to cover you until you have free time to be with your families for the holidays.

Much like the summer kids camp I had, I will pack on as much activities during the days to keep your kids busy. I don’t have a set in stone schedule of events but I expect a full two weeks of packed mixed martial arts…at least! My summer kids loved this program, so I hope they will enjoy the winter camps as well.

To sign your kids up, a non-refundable 50% of desired tuition is requested for registration. The other half of your tuition will be collected on the beginning week of December 19th. You can sign your child up for as little or as much as you would like during this special holiday offering.

Sseko Designs Trunk Show

Sseko is an ethical fashion company that began in Uganda, with the inspiration to give women employment opportunities so that they could save money towards a college education. Sseko believes that when women are given safe and dignified employment, we are moving towards a brighter future.

So many of us are planning our holiday gift-giving right now.

By purchasing beautiful, handmade, high quality gifts that inspire you and also impact a woman in East Africa by helping her attend University you are helping to co-create the type of world that we all want to live in.

Sseko is all about inspiring women to Be Brave and pursue their dreams and I truly look forward to sharing with you, not only our beautiful sandals, purses, and jewelry, but also about the Sseko story and how conscious, not-just-for-business-businesses are making a difference in communities around the world.

We invite you to an afternoon of holiday shopping with a Sseko Designs Trunk Show.
