Here is a follow up from Emma and her friends who responded to JustServe.org. The day before Thanksgiving, we met, they picked up MonkeyKits, and the very next day, they made the monkeys. Looks like a lot of MonkeyFun.
Good job girls, darling monkeys, and thanks for spreading the MonkeyWord!
Dear Marcia,
How exciting that your sock monkeys are going to be featured in the paper!
The girls are planning on approaching the Home Ec teacher. They are hoping she will be willing to add the sock monkey project to her seventh and eighth grade sewing projects.
The girls are planning on sending the sock monkeys back to you for distribution, unless they give them to a hospital their cousin was a patient at.
The girls are very excited to continue to make sock monkeys, both to gain volunteer hours for CJSF (California Junior Scholarship Foundation) as well as having an opportunity to be a part of an amazing community program.
I will keep you updated on how it goes with the teacher at school and where the monkeys are headed.
Thank you again for putting together such a wonderful project!
do you have a pattern you like to use? Where do I get the cute colors and patterns? I love this idea.
ReplyDeleteHI Janet,
