Happy 2016, everyone! Kidstock hopes that this new year brings you and yours a year filled with health and happiness, along with lots of fun clothing and toys. Our shelves are filled and our racks are full -- come shopping soon!. |
It's in the Bag, Again
A few years ago the plastic bag ban officially become law in the city of L.A. Kidstock-size stores are not yet required to comply with the ban, but we always like to help save the planet where we can.
At Kidstock, we can already see the cultural change. Fully three quarters of our customers decline a bag at checkout or bring his/her own into the store. We also re-use and re-purpose larger bags, so if you have clean gift bags left over from the holidays, we will happily put them to use.
Congratulations to the City of L.A. (and our conscientious customers) and all of their efforts to change the nature of how we use our natural resources in our everyday lives. |
Reminders
* We are accepting bags with clothing, toys, and small furniture items. Items do not need to be seasonal. You may drop off at any time, although we do ask that you limit yourself to 1-2 (non-ripped, not too heavy) bags at a time. Please remember that we do not accept stained or torn items. Games/puzzles must be complete.
* Kidstock will open at 10am and close at 2pm Friday, January 15 and Saturday, January 16 due to a family celebration. We apologize for the inconvenience.
* A great tip worth repeating: If you are shopping without your kids, bring a pair of pants with you that fit him/her well. That way you can measure the length/waist against items in the store and have a better idea of sizing.
* Don't forget to check out Patootie Cakes diaper cakes for a unique and fun shower centerpiece or new parent gift. Visit www.patootiecakes.com, order, and get free S/H when you pick up at Kidstock. Additional discounts are offered if you pay in cash. |

Messy January Art Project
Tasty Fingerpaint Recipe
As many of you know, we at Kidstock love messy art and we especially love when the art is good enough to eat. Here is a simple project that combines it all!
Supplies:
plain yogurt
Kool Aid in several colors (or flavors! For green, mix blue and yellow.)
brushes, paper, or cookie sheets
Mix a couple scoops of yogurt with about a half package of Kool Aid. The consistency should be great for fingerpainting or body painting. Have a bathtub handy before you start for quick clean up -- or better yet, do it IN the bathtub! (The fingerpaint won't taste good as neither of these food items have sugar in them to start with, but no one will get hurt by eating it, either.)
