Littler (but now pretty much fully big), e. started her project a little over a week ago.
In fact, last weekend when the two E's and me went out for our traditional mad scramble shopping day, e. was dragging a huge bag of yarn along with her.
And then, on Wednesday, she sent us the picture above.
Why 18 different hats?
Because that is precisely how many kids e. is working with these days.
As you can imagine, when I saw the videos her charges joyously receiving their hats, one by one, with explanations of why their particular design and colour scheme had been chosen for them alone, I became extremely verklempt in the best of all possible ways
Here are all the hats in a stack, which I also get an immense kick out of:
It turns out that e.'s project was inspired by a teacher, Madame T, who did a similar thing for the entire class when she was a little kid.

Speaking of which, here is the actual littler version of said kid of mine, which was recorded not long after the seed was planted by that most ingenious of memory makers, Madame T...

at 1:08 of 1:50 of the video is a 'Cellomic' bag which made me think that your daughter also plays the chello
duh! Cellomics Technology .... gene editing, especially high throughput gene editing and gene functional ...
NVG--
Chello is better!

What an awesome and cool (warm) idea. That’s something the kids will remember and can use right away. Something as simple as a hat can have a long ranging positive effect, as it did for your kid.
It looks like even when she was young she was ready for the stage, and already had at least one fan walking by.
When do the bongo’s come in?
Graham--
During that year of our family busking we pretty much always travelled with bongos!
And now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure they were on my Christmas wishlist, circa 2009.

Just the ticket for a gloomy day. Pure joy. !
Keith--
It hit me exactly the same way.
Thanks!

I bought a guitar from MVH in 2002, my only pure acoustic. He's done some wonderful things with ukeleles: https://youtu.be/51qVv2XorQE?si=4UdJh53h6ulwOG4C
that is adorable, a pink guitar and matching pink and brown toque. the stack of toques are adorable what a wonderful thing to make for children.
Nice work there, to you and the other parental unit--off spring who are kind and talented. Not bad at all.
