Kids’ Leather Work
Kids Leather Working class was great; my 2 11 year olds throughly enjoyed the class, They had a number of projects and even were able to complete more than one project each. Jamie, the instructor, was reassuring and patient, and great with the kids; there were other classes on going and that provided a great opportunity for the children to see more experienced students working on more intricate projects. The supplies were plentiful, well organized and the environment was safe, engaging and very conducive to learning at different levels! Great class, my girls are talking about another class soon! -
