    Very nifty Karen.  I'll put in a pitch for teaching Sunday School. 
    We have a rotational program going, so that every week the class
    goes to a different class reflecting a different activity.  I taught
    a "make a gift" session during the weeks before Christmas.  Each
    youngster made a bracelet and earrings for a gift to a special woman
    - Mom, Grandma, teacher, baby-sitter, etc. 

    The primary school ages were successful making stretchy bead
    bracelets.  High Schoolers formed links with stone beads on wire. 
    It appeared to be fun for all ages and genders. 

    Terrie's correct in that exposing those young folks to
    lapidary/jewelry activities is the future.  I think it's very
    important that they come away with a feeling of success and
    something tangible to show off.  Karen's camp sounds perfect!
