Busy Bees For Chic Kids

As the sting of winter gradually begins to fade, a whole
host of springtime party opportunities and social occasions start to pop up
on the every-brightening horizon! As the sun starts to shine and the chill
begins to ease, a whole new wardrobe is in store for your most style-savvy
little ones. —%uFFFD

Take a leaf from many of the classic, Americana-inspired
designs for the spring season and outfit your budding fashionistas in
adorably demure frocks from Busy Bees. This sweet & savvy brand sprang from
the minds of two mothers–also fashion PR veterans–who truly understand the
delicate combination of youthful, but distinctly modern, children’s wear. We’re
loving the cap sleeve crab smock pocket dress! Perfect for the sweet transition
between seasons.

Treehouse Shakers

<div>Treehouse Shakers&rsquo; Branching OUT After-School program is for ages 12-14. This awarded program is for young people who identify as LGBTQIA+, or are seeking to become better allies. Branching OUT centers on discovering and exploring one&rsquo;s story and identity through an intentionally artist-led format. During our community-based program, young people will explore and reflect on their own story to create a larger, more meaningful experience, while gaining self-empowerment and gathering with like-minded peers. Through the guidance of our awarded teaching artists, young people will create narratives that will be turned into podcasts, dances, songs or poetry.&nbsp;</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Young people have the opportunity to learn new art forms, work with professional artists, while building a meaningful community.</div>
