  This Friday's craft kit is all about poetry! April is National Poetry Month. When you pick up your kit at the drive through or the Children's Desk, you'll receive an envelope full of words and a book. Use the words to inspire poems or piece them to create poems made entirely out of cut out words! Need more words? Find an old magazine and cut them out yourself. How many poems can you fit in your book? Each kit also comes with an extra way to make poetry on your fridge!             

  Create this adorable bunny for a beautiful spring day with today's craft kit! Pick up your kit at the Children's Desk or the drive through and follow along with the simple tutorial here:  https://www.woojr.com/cuddly-pom-pom-easter-bunny-tutorial/#sthash.TcdsWCIB.qjtu
