Jamie Lee Curtis' story of a little boy who accidentally lets go of his balloon. He wonders "Where do balloons go when you let them go free? It can happen by accident. It's happened to me."

Can plain balloons read balloons printed with words?" The kids will paint a small round box today. The total cost is $10.00 - there is no charge for a sitting fee for this class. Pre-registration is recommended. 856-833-1330. The session should last about an hour.
