[Artemisia] Wow, All These Collegium Classes for Kids!!

[Tamar Black Sea]

Holy Moses! These are fabulous classes! Who do I have to bribe to be 
counted as a kid?

My youngest daughter took Mistress Constance's class on Making Your Own 
Bath Salts last spring. She is still raving about that class and has 
taught all her friends how to do bath salts. I can attest to the fact 
that these classes not only make for a fun event, but provide hours of 
entertainment  for your kids when they get home.

They also get some serious street cred with their friends when they show 
them all the cool stuff they learned at Collegium.

Thanks to Aurora and all the teachers who are investing their time in 
our Kingdom's youth.

You Rock!

YIS,
Tamar
