K-Kids
Lanyard Workshop at Henderson Elementary
Guest Blog

It was a real treat for me to assist
Vickie Buenger in a lanyard workshop benefitting the Children’s Neuroblastoma
Cancer Foundation. The library was
filled with K-Kids, teachers, parents, and a lot of enthusiasm to string beads
into quirky and artistic lanyards.
It
was amazing to watch the students work on patterns, colors, and shapes as
dedicated beaders for Erin’s Dream Lanyard cause. Success was the storyline of the workshop and
the K-Kid’s pride in their finished products was evident in their smiles and
anxious spirits to try them on.
I always
think music…so to play a little with Michael Jackson’s song “Beat It”…I titled
this blog “Bead It” and quote his lyrics, “No one wants to be defeated…Showin’
how funky strong is your fight…Just beat it”.
This became our fight today to help with funding to find a cure by
working on a lanyard to JUST BEAD IT!
