It’s Throwback Sunday!

Let’s​ ​take a look back at Pancake Day! Revisit the fun at the photobooth, ​LINK HERE.

Kids Kreations
Kids Kreations​ is back! This exciting program allows your child’s custom artwork to be made into a variety of exclusive
keepsake items and shipped directly to your home. This year’s fundraiser will benefit the fifth grade class gift fund, since
they are unable to run their annual spring fundraiser to purchase a gift for the school. ​Look for the email from your
classroom teacher with your child’s custom art ID and instructions for ordering​. You can also order custom items
created from photos or artwork you upload to the Kids Kreations website; ​click here​ for a “how to” guide for this. We
owe a huge ​thanks​ as always to our amazing art teacher, Ms. Lee, for all of her help curating your child’s art pieces for
this program. If you have questions about using your child’s art code to order, please email us at
indiantrailpto@gmail.com​.
