Hey...did anyone watch "Puppet UP" on monday night? It was wonderful. It was like watching "Whose Line is it Anyway" with puppets! It reminded me of the International Puppet Festival in NYC that I went to with my friend, Phoebe!

I checked out the international puppet festival and there was some amazing work there. Something is up with my volume and I couldn't hear the others.
I have a question for you. Do you have any gift ideas for 10 children, the oldest 9 and the youngest 1? I was thinking of bringing a bunch of really cool art supplies with me on my trip and I was thinking that you may have some ideas.
Thanks,
Margaret
hi margaret.
i like http://www.creativityforkids.com
and http://www.klutz.com
they both make really wonderful age appropriate kits and the kids i've given them to LOVED them.
as far as the wee tot goes...not sure. 1 year olds are still into oral exploration so it would certainly have to be non toxic and not a choking hazard. i think i would get an age appropriate toy and skip the art supplies for the wee tot. though the crayola bathtub crayons sure look like fun. http://www.crayolastore.com
Good luck! Let me know how it goes, what you bought and how they liked it.

Thanks, Wendy!
