unleash your kid's inner artist...at the mall!
This post is sponsored by GapKids. Check out all the fun Shine On activities at your nearest Gap store. For event dates and locations, visit Gap’s Facebook page and join the conversation on Twitter with hashtag #ShineOn.
Designed by Merrilee Liddiard of Mer Mag, the special "Shine On" art projects were inspired by the GapKids and babyGap fall collection. From creating geometric masterpieces on canvas using paint and tape to colorful, custom journals to get kids ready for back-to-school, the projects help kids express their creativity! And more importantly, they help you (aka me) get through the mall experience in one piece.
I normally avoid the mall like the plague, but when there are haircuts, clothes, and school shoes to check off the lengthy back-to-school list, I brave it along with the rest of the embattled moms. We so rarely go to the mall that when we get there, Vivi exclaims "Mommy, look at all these cars! Who are all these people and what are they all doing here? What is this place?!" She will bulldoze through a crowd if markers and glue are offered, so she'll go nuts over this event. Art projects are a little girl's idea of heaven on earth.
The GapKids at South Shore Plaza in Braintree, Mass is offering a Shine On event tomorrow, Saturday August 25th, from 10am to 1pm. Check out this link for other locations.You have to shop any way, so you may as well score some mom points in the process, right?
I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective, and the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.
