A Fairy Princess Halloween!

Last night my daughter's ballet class had a Halloween party. The whole family was invited to watch.

She's been trick-or-treating for three years now. The first year she was a princess. Last year she was a fairy. And this year... a fairy princess!

I knew princesses were popular, but I had no idea how popular. There are 17 girls in her ballet class. We had a Minnie Mouse, a pirate, a witch, and no kidding, 14 variations of the princess.

Each of the Disney princesses were represented at least once. We had a mermaid princess, a Snow Princess, and at least six fairy princesses. They went around the circle, each describing their costume.

A few seconds later the pirate explained that she was a pirate princess. Not to be outdone, the witch called herself an evil Princess. Poor Minnie Mouse looked like an outcast!

Kids Need Art Every Day

Here's my weekly YouTube video blog. This week's topic is "Why you should give your kids lots of opportunities to create art." If you watch you'll also get to learn why I'm wearing that ridiculous hat.

Here's a great commercial for Girls's Costume Warehouse in Hackensack, New Jersey. It's never too early to start shopping for Halloween.
