The camp was unaccommodating about her medication and treated her like a nuisance. Instead of helping her assimilate, giving her empathy and redirecting her they looked at her behavior as a problem to get rid of. I taught Pre-K for 8 years and know one thing. Every child should be treated as you would treat your own. Her illness sometimes makes her a bit restless and moody to no fault of her own. She is only 6 and deserves to be treated like any other child. Just because kids don't fit into a particular mold doesn't mean you discard of them or don't help them. All I want is for her to enjoy her life beyond her circumstances. The job of teachers is to foster each child's gifts and give them a chance. If not your in the wrong profession.

I highly recommend this school for anyone looking for a spark of adventure, excitement, or even a workout! Also works for an interesting date location!

Six weeks later, I can finally write this review…read more Woohoo! For those not aware, my latest endeavor was signing up for a six-week pottery course with one of my best friends who also happens to be my work husband. What motivated this endeavor? I am a bored and crazy soul. That, and admittedly, this was on my bucket list for years. You see, my mother used to do ceramics and she would never stop talking about how I needed to try it as well. Turns out that while my mother had talent for pottery, I am abysmal at it. The only real competition I have is my dear friend. We cannot seem to decide whose pottery is worse. Semantics aside, the Ceramic League of Miami can be located in the village of Pinecrest. It essentially is an open-spaced garage full of pottery wheels, bookshelves, and clay galore. They have an area for parking, and on the off chance it's packed, there's plenty of businesses around where you can park. Everything in this area is pretty relaxed. Classes can either be daytime or nighttime Monday through Saturday. We signed up for the 2:30 PM Saturday class for the pottery wheel and soda kiln with James. The signing up process was relatively simple. We did everything online. When we began the class, we were given the option of purchasing a tool set. You needed to bring exact change for this. $14 to be specific. If you didn't get this for whatever reason (usually the school running out of them), you could share with the instructor and/or other students. This is what ended up happening to me. This six-week pottery course cost $155 and it included two and a half hours of instruction every Saturday, as well as what I refer to as that horribly heavy 20+ lb of clay bag. The class is over and I have leftover clay. What the heck am I supposed to do with it? I have clay in places I never thought I would. Cough; I am referencing my box of art supplies in my car. Yes, I can effectively now say I've become an artist. If you become a member of this non-profit organization, the class will cost you $145 instead. Overall, I thought the prices fair for what we did. We received a lot of personal instruction and got to get our hands down and dirty. Unfortunately the movie Ghost sets up unrealistic expectations when it comes to clay. Noting that, if you go in with an open mind, this is a blast; a frustrating blast but a blast nevertheless. I found James to be an efficient and kind instructor. I just wish there had been more organization on his part. We never really got to mark our pieces properly, but oh well. I would probably do this again in the future. For now though, this girl is off to her next venture: aerial yoga!

There are so many sensory centers with shaving cream, water, bubbles, paint, recycled materials to make kitchens and "grocery stores", clay station, sand, all emersed in nature. This is a fabulous place for children (and parents) to explore and get dirty! We hunted for bugs, paid at the grocery store with sticks and leaves, children painted on themselves and other fun places. I highly recommend this Sunday morning class to parents, nannies and grandparents, aunts, uncles...so much fun to be had! The lead teacher, Julianna, had all the kids engaged while running the kids around in a wheel barrow or making mud "cappuccino". She is amazing with high energy and a special report with children and parents. Come, explore, enjoy some messy down time with your kids.

All local artists, all small affordable pieces, and all showcased Miami from the perspective of people who actually live here. I got to speak to a couple of the artists about their work, which was not only fun but also inspiring. Their perspectives really shape the art even further. Luis "STYLE" Berros was one of them. His pencil on canvas was a depiction of a regular evening in Miami, sitting around the table playing a game of cards. Another standout was Philippe Gornail, a young artist who made a beautiful Miami sunset out of a Miami staple, lottery tickets. He took his time to tell us his inspiration and story. The gallery also had a DJ spinning vinyl tunes and had the place feeling like an old school house party. They sold drinks that weren't overpriced, as well as T-shirts they were literally screen-printing as the night progressed. All in all, the experience was a great Miami night. My hope is more people come and see our city through El Fresco's lens.
