For the very first day of school

Everyone says that kids grow up fast, and it really hits home when you are dressing them for their first day of kindergarten. Clothing designer Lindsey Strittmatter of Frisco, Texas has created a shirt that commemorates this special day. Available in her Etsy.com shop, Pocketbaby, the cotton top proclaims “Class of 2028” and your child’s name. You can also choose thread color, and the fabric for the outer circle (from the list of swatches available on Pocketbaby.com).

Your child will look so cute, you’ll be smiling through your tears as you wave goodbye!

SKATEYOGI

<p><span style="caret-color: #500050; color: #500050; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; background-color: #ffffff;">Discover the joy of skateboarding! Offered at both their original Prospect Lefferts Gardens location and their new space on the Williamsburg Waterfront (N 9th St @ Kent), SKATEYOGI Summer Camp welcomes anyone ages 7-13 from absolute beginners to experienced skaters in a fun, creative environment. Campers are exposed to both outdoor skating on daily trips to nearby parks and indoor ramp practice. Their low student-to-teacher ratio ensures plenty of personal attention. They also offer a shorter afternoon mini-camp at both of these locations for younger skaters ages 5-7. Rental gear is included for camps held on-site at SKATEYOGI. For more experienced skaters ages 9-15, their Urban Shredders program offers daily adventures at skateparks and skate spots around Downtown Brooklyn. </span></p>
