A Hoodie To Admire

I adore the soft feel of cashmere and the warmth it can offer me whether it’s a cold wintry day or a cool summer night. My latest find is from the Minnie Rose collection which offers 12 amazing color choices in light weight cashmere and best of all, the designer is a New York City Mom. The collection offers ponchos, shawls, tank tops, dresses and classic & trendy sweaters. My pick from the collection this season is the “Campfire Hoodie”, which offers a Henley style neck with a fringed bottom and a hood. You will want to throw it on with a pair of white or denim skinny jeans or even shorts on a cool summer day or night. $286 www.winknyc.com

The most compelling motivation for learning to code is that it enables building something kids can call their own. What makes this approach "worth it" for the kids is that at the end of the road, they see that their code actually does things in the real world. Not in some playpen, but in the real Internet where anyone can access it.&nbsp; <span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp; <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Programs:<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Penguin Coding School <span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">provides comprehensive coding education to kids ages 5-18.
