  •  
    I'm starting a lunchtime knitting/crochet club for my students this year and came along this wonderful program to help with the cost. This program donates supplies for mentors who would like to start a program to teach needle arts. Here are some of the benefits from learning a needle art: For Youths: Develops focus and concentration Encourages following a process Builds self-esteem Improves math and reading skills Enhances critical thinking and problem solving Offers a vehicle for stress release and anger management Encourages creativity through portable alternative activity Provides healthy interpersonal relationships with adults Ensures tangible accomplishments with immediate results Learns a practical, useful and fun activity Enhances hand/eye coordination, small motor skills, tactile energy, communication skills, self discipline and attention to detail
