Launch Date for New Scottsdale Children Activities Group Set!

                                                           New Children's Activity Group in Scottsdale!  (Update)

As followers of my blog already know, my wife has started a new business based around activities for Scottsdale children, ages 2-5, and their parents.  Busy Bees Adventures was created with the goal of introducing little ones to the behind the scenes action of favorite local merchants as well as community resources.  While a good portion of the last month has been spent arranging a schedule for the inaugural 6 week sessions, I am pleased to announce that it is now set! 

Examples of activities that you and your children will take part in (depending on which session you sign up for) include a tour of a local fire station, fingerprinting at the Scottsdale Police Department, backstage visit to the Valley Youth Theater, visit to a Scottsdale children's photography studio, helping create a work of art at Edible Arrangements, going behind the counter at Cold Stone Creamery to make their own ice cream concoctions, and many more! 

As a stay-at-home mother of two little boys, my wife's idea sprung out of boredom with the standard gym classes, walking groups and play-dates.  For high energy children and the sake of her own sanity, she decided that variety was the keyProviding an environment for kids and parents alike to learn about their community while having fun, Busy Bees Adventures was born!  Catering to single income families, special consideration was given to affordability.  Each 6 week session includes one class per week (approximately 1 hour) for a total cost of only $75.  To learn more about Busy Bees, including a complete schedule and online class registration, please visit www.BusyBeesAdventures.com

Sessions begin on October 2nd.  Space is limited, so please reserve your place today!

Jason, Thanks for following my blog all the way to Localism!  She really has busted her tail to get this up and running, so now it's just a matter of opening the floodgates.  I fully expect her to be a smashing success.  I'll keep you posted.  Thanks again for the support and encouragement.

Actually, you are among a handful of people that I really like reading here on AR.  I'm sure things will go well with Busy Bees!

Paul, it sounds like your wife has some very creative and fun ideas planned for the kids.  If she's passionate about this, I'm sure it will be a successful program.  The website looks good so far, and I'm sure that as the program proceeds it will get even better.  My wife, as you probably know by now, is in the dance business and while marketing to wedding couples for the past 6 years, she is now expanding into teaching at after-school programs at elementary schools.  She just got hired by two schools this week, and we hope to build upon this success.  My mother works with children teaching art and art history in Florida and just launched her program about 4 years ago to almost immediate success.  Good luck to you and your wife in this new venture.
