It's no secret, my boys hate to go shopping with me, but there are times when they have no choice in the matter.  Keeping them occupied while I shop for new duds for them is somewhat of a challenge.  Having them create art while I shop is even better.

Throughout the month of August, GapKids hosted Shine On Saturdays, a crafting session for designed for kids.  The DIY projects at select GapKids stores were designed by Merrilee Liddiard of Mer Mag.  

The projects were inspired by the GapKids and babyGap fall collection, including the best new 1969 denim - Jewel Box Skinnies for girls (the new skinny jean updated in bright stretchy denim) and Action Stretch Denim for boys (designed for play all day- it’s denim that’s made to move).

For my Miami (& South Broward) peeps, check out GapKids Shine On Saturday this Saturday, August 25 10am-1pm GapKids @ Adventura Mall on the lower level (19575 Biscayne Blvd. Suite 331).  This week the kiddos will be making an animal character badge.

 

You have one more week to check out the GapKids Shine On Saturday event at GapKids locations across the country with fun activities designed just for the kiddies!        I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective, and the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.        Alexis
