Passport to Adventure at Michaels

This week Michaels stores started their annual Passport to Adventure series. I have been wanting to visit for for a few years, but never seem to make it there with camp, play dates, vacation, and lazy mornings. This year, I am going to try hard to make it to at least one session.

Passport to Adventure is a 7 week  exploration of the continents with a 2 hour crafting adventure. This year, there will be 3 sessions a week - Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10a-noon. Each session is $2/child and they are designed for children ages 5 and up. Space is limited, so you may want to pre-register.

The video below gives you more information about Passport to Adventure:


The series started on Monday, June 17 with a theme of North America for Week 1, and continues this morning, Wednesday, June 19. The series concludes on Friday, August 2. Each class will have an in-class project, a swap project, and an at-home project.
