I think this may have been the most noisy week of camp so far, my ears are still ringing! However, it would also be one of the most astonishing weeks in terms of the work produced. I would like to explain the theme of last week’s camp to you, but I don’t know where to …
The second week of summer art camp this year was all about printmaking – my favorite medium. Printmaking with a class of elementary aged children is not for the faint hearted. It is messy, oh so messy, and it is unpredictable and requires a lot of organization and some degree of flexibility. It is for …
Here we go: I asked my children what their favorite places in Copenhagen are, and this is the list they gave me. The Rundetaarn The kids loved the dizzy climb to the top and seeing that spectacular view of the city. We giggled over the kissing seat, and we were all pleasantly surprised to find …
I LOVE COPENHAGEN There it is, all in caps, just like the t-shirt says. I love it. I love it with the intensity that a good holiday crush deserves. “But it is more than a crush!” I whine to anyone who will listen. I love it to the point that I would willingly move there …

Decades later, teachers everywhere are dealing with the offshoots from that seed of discrimination you helped to plant. What would your english literature teacher have had to say about that, hmmm? Let’s change that little …
I have a close friend whose son asked me for “something awesome” on a visit. Nothing specific, just…“something awesome” – right, no pressure then. At the time I was actually tickled pink that he had chosen me as his personal purveyor of awesome things, but I wasn’t quite sure that the two of us had …
I have been holed up in my local library writing curriculum all week. It is perfect weather for this: the rain has been unrelenting for days, and there is hardly any sunlight filtering through the windows, and I have turned into a solid, unmoving rock. A childhood spent in England has definitely not made me …
“Everyday do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow.” – Doug Firebaugh I love the use of the word inch in that quote. That’s what I have been doing dutifully ever since I started this business. Inching. Like a tortoise, or a slowly seeping ink spill trying to get to the edge …
