[Nfb-krafters-korner] Junior crafters group

Great. Because they are all I think publicly available elsewhere, it gives 
an opportunity for others to get involved. Not just one person has to do all 
of the teaching or that person gets burned out. If sighted parents get 
involved, it also brings an opportunity for them to share these highly 
visual patterns with all of us since all of the pony bead patterns require 
looking at a picture since no written instructions are given. This can 
broaden the material available to us.

Good idea Greg.  I did not mean for her to stop teaching adults, I ment save 
them up and teach the kids next year!

If folks start saving up classes for the kids, that will greatly detract 
from the group. Adults obviously want to take the pony bead classes and it 
is not a good idea to try and mix adult classes and kid classes into one.
Also, are we here to make money or are we here to share crafting and 
encourage crafting? Instead of charging a kid membership, membership may 
need to be per family and if the parent is a member, the kid is 
automatically in!

We would also get more kids if we still charge $20 for the parent and $10
for the child.
Remember, a child will not take as many classes as an adult!
Joyce, save up your poney bead classes for the kids!
