Published: 03/08/2012 Check out our latest guide: Easter Egg Hunts 2013  MARCH EVENTS: March 15 Simon Kidgits (Potomac Mills Mall) are invited to a special Third Thursday Eggstravaganza from 10am-11am in the Grand Court featuring fun, hands-on holiday activities. March 18 Good Shepherd United Methodist Church (16999 Birchdale Ave Woodbridge VA) will offer a "Chapel of the Cross" from 6pm-8pm The sanctuary will be open from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. for you to come at your leisure and experience the passion of Jesus in the Stations of the Cross—Good Shepherd style. There will be 14 stations plus an opening and closing area to experience and to contemplate the blessing of Jesus’ gift of himself to us. It takes reflecting on the passion out of your head, involving both your senses and your emotions. It is a contemplative, relaxed experience, through which people will want to go at their own pace. Accordingly, all adults and families are welcome to enter the chapel, but we ask that you please be respectful of the experience that others are having, maintaining the reverence and the quiet of the room. Children may desire to move through the stations at a quicker pace (unless you experience it together as a family), so we suggest you bring a quiet activity for your child to do while you finish your stations.

This reading and writing camp promises to be fun. Kids will have a chance to write about things they know and enjoy. We plan to use different reading strategies to encourage kids to read their material as well as other printed material. The best writers write from a place they know and we want to help our young writers express themselves. We will have a variety of writing activities ranging from fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and other types of creative writing ideas. We know that some kids love to write and at the same time some kids hate to write. We have a camp that will bridge both types of kids. We will fuse music, art, and movement to create our young writers camp. We look forward to a fun, writing camp this spring break.
