Meet our Kinder Helpers!

Meet our amazing Helias helpers, Cam and Wyatt. They've joined us for a few classes this month and will be with us until mid-April. They've really been a great support by handing out supplies, chatting with us about our drawings, and encouraging our painting skills on the Springtime picture we just completed. Today, we had fun learning how to draw the Bunny and Chick Peeps! Take a look at our photo below :)
