KidHaven Chats With Music Together
If it isn't obvious, New Haven Kids is a HUGE fan of Music Together, and it appears our fellow New Haven Mom/Blogger KidHaven is too! Check out her interview with Liz from Music Together HERE.
It's just part 1 of their interview, so please check back tomorrow for part 2. I must say, part 1 is very informative...I'm curious to see where else they'll take this discussion.
And don't forget! Music Together free demos are beginning this week in various locations. Click Here to see the complete list.

Home Depot Kids Workshops
This is old news to most of you, but worth the reminder!
The first Saturday of every month, your local Home Depot hosts a Kids Workshop for ages 5-12.
The Home Depot's Kids Workshops offer useful projects including the creation of toolboxes, fire trucks and mail organizers, as well as more educational projects, such as a window birdhouse, bughouse or Declaration of Independence frame kit.
The workshops teach children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, while at the same time helping to instill a sense of accomplishment. Additionally, this fun time allows for quality one-on-one time between adults and children.
In addition to the newly constructed project kit, each child receives a kid-sized orange apron, similar to The Home Depot associates' aprons, and an achievement pin.
For more info, visit their website.
