SAFE GAMES & RECIPES FOR THE GIRLS

We will be updating the website with some games and recipes that hopefully love to do. These recipes will get us started.

Peanut Butter Play Dough

one 18-oz. jar creamy peanut butter
6 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup non-fat dry milk

Mix ingredients together, using varying amounts of dry milk for desired consistencies. Knead it with fingers, forming into desired shapes, adding other foods like M&M's or peanuts for eyes, mouths, etc. Great fun!

Storage: When not using, MUST be stored in an airtight container.


Peanut Butter Caterpillars

bananas
peanut butter
grapes
chow mein noodles

Peel and slice a banana. Join the slices together by "gluing" them with peanut butter. Carefully poke two chow mein noodles (or break a pretzel stick in half to make two pieces) through the top of the grape. Use more peanut butter to attach the head (grape) to the front of the body, with antennae (chow mein noodles) pointing up.


Muenster Beetles

crunchy chow mein noodles
muenster cheese (or other soft block cheese)

Cut cheese into 2" x 1" rectangular blocks. Gently insert three chow mein noodles on each side of cheese block for legs. Using two broken chow mein noodles, insert into "head" as antennae.

Note: Cheddar makes a bright and colorful beetle, but can be very frustrating for little fingers as the cheese is a bit too hard to press the noodles into without breaking. Use softer cheese such as gouda, havarti, monterey jack, or even mozerella.

SUMMER DANCE CLASS

We will be offering a 6 week summer dance program, for ages 3-5 year olds. It will be on Tuesdays from 1:30-2:30 pm in the afternoon. It will be the weeks of June 9th, 23rd, 30th, July 7th and 14th. On July 14th, the last class, we will invite parents to come to the studio, and the class well perform for them what they have learned in the 6 weeks. The 6 week course is only a one time cost of $40.00.

When we start our Fall Classes, we are going to split up the ages with a Preschool 3-4 year old class, and a seperate 5-6 year old class. We will have incentives for current students that bring in new students for our classes that start in the Fall.

Please let me know if you're interested in the Summer Classes, and I will get you signed up. Thank you for your support of Dance Illusion, and if the summer classes do not work for you, we hopw to have you sign up again in the Fall. We will be offering a lot more classes and are excited to contiue our expansion.

Check our blog www.thedanceillusion.blogspot.com for this information as well. If you know anyone else that you think would be interested in our Summer Classes, please have them look the information up on the blog.

Reminder

Just a quick reminder that if you attend class to watch your daughters, PLEASE sit in the side viewing room on the west side of the studio. It is a big distraction for the students if we have people in the studio. The students have a tendency to pay attention to the parents instead of the teachers. We would appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
