Happy April!

Is it really spring yet?  No fooling around now, this Canadian girl believes it is!! (plus, I couldn't handle any more snow!) 

With the change of season, our little Natural Kids Team has been a changing as well.  Looking through the archives, the Natural Kids team was started in December 2007 by Amber of Woodmouse who recently decided to close shop to focus on her family and an upcoming baby. (hope your checking back with us Amber!)

  Amber was helped out by many of the team from natural kids but a special nod to the two lovely fairies, Faerie Rebecca and Fairiesnest and of course Woolies for helping the team run so smoothly.  (I'm so sorry if I've missed anyone!)  Thank-you guys!

Our new volunteer leaders are Danielle for membership, me pupa on blog, Natural Star on admin and we have Little Elf, Wee Beaks and Woolies all working hard on promoting the team. Of course I'd love to mention all the other wonderful volunteers on our team. I am happy to get to know all of our varied members more!  

I'd like to quote Amber from her first post as I think it sums up our little team quite well!

"So who are we?

Some of us are mothers of small children.

Some of us are mothers of grown children.

Some of us make dolls, some of us make hats, some of us make toys.

Some of us have been selling our wares for many years.

Some of us are just starting to discover our talents and start selling.

Some of us work with natural materials for environmental reasons.

Some of us work with natural materials as part of the Waldorf educational philosophy.

Some of us work with natural materials because we believe they are healthier and safer.

Some of us just like working with natural materials.

Some of us sell our wares for a living.

Some of us sell our wares as a hobby.

Some of us...

Stay tuned for crafty tutorials, posts on raising natural kids, business and selling stories, and all sorts of creative, educational and fun ramblings!"

In that same spirit, keep checking back!  If you have any fun ideas, I love hearing from you, I have been known to be a bit chatty :)  Thanks members, see you online, pupa

p.s look for a fun tutorial on Thursday!
