American Girl Place Visit 2012!

I have finally managed to upload all of our photos from class onto flickr! That's about 500 photos from all 5 of our classes!

It's almost time for our Third Annual American Girl Place Visit! I know how much the girls enjoy their visit, as do their friends and family. Even the AGP staff loves having us! ;) I can’t wait to see you this Friday! I sent detailed emails to the girls who RSVP'ed earlier today, if you didn't receive one, please email me.

DATE: Friday, August 3, 2012

LOCATION: American Girl Place Los Angeles (189 The Grove Dr. 90036)

Lunch @ 2:30

RSVP only. Lunch has been pre-paid by attendees. No additions can be accommodated at this time.

Craft and Scavenger Hunt @ 4-6pm
The store is hosting the McKenna Bracelet Craft as well as the McKenna “Take the Challenge” Scavenger Hunt. Each girl who participates in the scavenger hunt will receive a free American Girl poster. In addition, I will be handing out a mini scavenger hunt of questions about 6 historical American Girls. You might win a prize!

If you need to contact me, I can be reached by email and will respond within 24 hours. In case of emergency on the 3^rd, I have provided my cell number by email.

If you haven’t already, check out the American Girl set on flickr!

Parking at The Grove can be a bit costly. I encourage visitors to carpool if possible. Generally, the first hour is free and is $3 for up to 3 hours. After this, the cost is significantly more. AGP does not validate, but other shops and the theatre at The Grove do. For more information, see:

If you wish to indulge in some retail therapy, the Concierge’s Loyalty Rewards program offers complimentary valet parking all day with purchases of over $250 in one visit.

The Farmers Market stalls also offer validation for their parking lot.

Testimonials

"This is so lovely for you to take the time to write this blog. Thank you very much for all of the extra time you are putting in. "
"Thanks for posting photos of the class on your blog! It's really fun to scroll through and find photos of [my son] having fun cooking and tasting all sorts of yummy dishes. We don't usually get a chance to meet the summer school teachers so this is an awesome way for you to share what goes on in class. [He] is enjoying himself. I love the concept for the class and think it's a great way to read, cook, and share."
"Thanks so much Miss Cong, we will follow along with your blog and we hope you're doing these courses next year, [my daughter] will be one of the first to sign up!"
"I just wanted to thank you SO much for making Book Cooks such a fun class for my twins. They loved being able to cook real food for themselves, and our whole family loved being able to follow along with your blog and photos. Thanks for taking the time to make this an experience we could all share."
"I just wanted to drop a line and say thank you so much for a wonderful summer!!! Both [daughters] had the BEST time in your Hogwarts class. They came home every day so excited to talk about what they'd done - and it was all so creative! So I know you must have put a great deal of time, thought and energy into planning it."
"My daughter [name omitted] was in two of your classes this summer, and I just wanted to drop you a line to tell you how much I appreciate the experiences you provided for her each day. She came home excited about each new thing that you did with the kids, whether making hoecakes or butterbeer! And she is generally hard to impress...jaded for her age due to two (also jaded) teenage siblings. So I know that she really had a wonderful time in your classes. I also wanted to tell you how impressed I was with the amount of work -- in terms of preparation and gathering materials -- that you put into each class. And the attention to detail...wow! Thank you for going above and beyond to give the kids a fabulous and truly unforgettable summer experience!"
"I've been wanting to tell you how much my boys love your classes! It's the first thing they talk about when they see me each afternoon. Very cool."
"What a class you must be teaching - [names omitted] both came home so excited and talked about their Hogwarts class for half an hour! Thank you for all of your hard work and creativity."
"I spoke with a mom yesterday who unsolicited offered up terrific and unsolicited praise of you and your classes."
"Just a quick note to let you know how popular your classes are! We have already filled your third period Hogwarts class (in fact, yours was among the first class to fill during last week’s live registration!)"
