Fighting the big red bad guy (oh how comfortable can he be in that get up?)
About a month ago Makenna and her cousins took a course at her school called Radkids. Its a course that teaches the kids how to defend themselves if someone is trying to hurt them. No one has the right to hurt me!! It was a great program that I enrolled her in after school for a week. At the end of the course they have a little program/simulation where everyone comes to watch them and cheer them on as they take on the "bad" guy. Well Makenna did great with the program and I was so glad that Meadow PTA offered it. A few weeks ago I got a letter in Maddie's backpack saying that they were doing Radkids in her special ed class and the lady from Meadow PTA was coming over to teach it. I didn't even have to pay for Maddie to take the course (I would have) but it is so neat that they are teaching these kids how to protect and to defend themselves in a situation. SO many kids are preyed upon and especially kids that are a little bit behind. I was so proud of both of my girls as they did the simulation. These are a few pics of the events. Way to go girls for completing RADKIDS!!
