Family Scrapbooking at Fremont Main

More than 50 men, women and children arrived for a beginners class on scrapbooking. I had 8 tables covered with supplies. We had dad's and their children along with mom's and their kids too. Only one mom, and 2 children had ever scrapbooked-so I had some major teaching to do. I explained the "rules" of scrapbooking and let them dive in. They enjoyed rummaging through all the different, unique supplies and asked for help with using the different products, cutters etc. It was awesome to see a dad enjoying creating his first scrapbook page. He did a great page! I wandered the room answering questions, showing techniques and ooohing and ahhhhing their pages.
When everyone was finished, they brought their pages to show me. Great work was accomplished! I love creating a safe place for people to be creative. Children and adults alike made wonderful memory pages. As many left, they asked when the next class would be. I was very impressed too, that the majority cleaned their tables and returned all the supplies to the work tables. It was a very good day!
