April 2022:

Saturday, Chicktime Bulverde celebrated Easter a day early with our young teens and babies at SJRC-Bulverde. Everyone pitched in to fill over 40 dozen empty egg shells with confetti. We also decoupaged eggs. After all that fun, they were treated to lunch and dessert. The cookies were almost to pretty to eat! And what is an Easter Celebration without breaking confetti eggs on each other. Sorry SJRC for the mess we left behind. The kids and adults had a blast.

We had a great time at Chadwhick on Saturday. Although most of the ladies were away on a weekend pass, we decided to make Easter Baskets and color eggs for them so they can have a few surprises when they return.

April Update:

Rain and Snow didn’t stop us from having a blast with our kids today! Easter egg coloring and outdoor hunt was very exciting for all of us. We love seeing the smiles on our kids faces every month . Special thanks to our event leader today, Dannielle Mack, for supplying these kids with your love and the supplies!

CD/DVD Mosiac Tray

Materials

CDs/DVDs
Trays

Spray Paint (if you want to paint tray first)
Clear Casting Resin (found at craft stores)
Rubber Gloves
Scissors
Mod Podge

Procedure

Spray paint tray if needed

Cut CDs/DVDs in small pieces with scissors
(you may want to have these precut for time sake)
The amount of CDs/DVDs needed depends on project size. 
For larger projects you may need up to 10 discs.

There are 2 layers to discs. Do not worry if they come apart. They will both be iridescent with different levels of transparency.

Cover bottom of tray in modpodge.  

Spread out with paint brush.

Place disk pieces in bottom.

Allow modpodge to dry and then pour resin over tiles.

Let it dry and you are finished!

Materials

Towels
Spray Tie-Dye Kit
Masking Tape
Measuring Cup
Warm Water
Rubber Gloves

Procedure

Lay your towel out on a flat surface, smoothing it out. Using the tape and moving slowly, spell out your child’s name across the towel.

Next, on a covered surface or grass, put on your gloves and begin mixing up the tie-dye with the warm water. What colors are made from the primary colors? Working from the color wheel, which colors will look best near each other on the towel?

With those gloves on, let the spraying begin!

It’s perfectly fine to get spray on the tape.

Once the towel is fairly dry, flip it over to be sure to spray the backside! Flip back over and allow to dry completely. Wash the towels separately twice alone in the wash.

Voilà! Monogrammed beach towels!

April Update:

Our fabulous Chicktime Smalltown Managing Leader, Kim, met Big Springs Ranch for Children’s houseparents at Walmart and loaded them up with Easter eggs, stuffed animals, candy (for Easter egg hunts) and gift cards for boys houses to do the same!!

She even loaded them up with hygiene products and fruit!! Something they really love and sadly do not get enough due to budget constraints! Can you imagine? Those little things we take for granted … fresh fruit and hygiene products!

Here are some pictures from the actual event!

Such a beautiful day, planting and making these sweet gifts for our moms! Thank you to our workshop leader, Morgan Wood and our volunteers that helped in making it a great day!

April 2022;

Easter is a time to welcome joy, hope and LIFE! Our April workshop led by Lupita was filled with nothing but love as we gathered to make Easter Egg Kits for the kids at The Rio Grande Children’s Home. We can’t wait to share the Easter spirit this season! Wishing all a blessed Holy Week ahead

April Update:

We hope everyone had a blessed Easter. We did not meet this month due to transitions within Immerse. They are hiring a new volunteer coordinator. We will see you in May!

April Update:

We were so excited to present the new clothes closet to the teens living at Miracles OutReach tonight! Many months of fundraising, blessings of donations of materials and labor, stacked with delays due to covid paved the path to today’s finish line! We are so proud of the final product and truly honored to serve the teens at Miracles OutReach.

 

We hope and pray that this clothes closet- the boutique- will always foster an environment where these teens feel love in the midst of the unthinkable circumstances that brought them here. Our wish is that they “shop” with dignity and that each piece they pick to be their own is one tiny step to them feeling normal again.

Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers, and to those that donated their time, skill and materials to make this dream a reality! We are so grateful that you give us a foundation to do what our heart so deeply desires.

March Update:

Another Chicktime Little Rock Mission Completed

In honor of International Women’s HERstory Month we decided to put together some “Self-Care Bags” for the young ladies at Immerse Arkansas.

As women we tend to wear the “S” on our chests like a badge of honor as we take care of everything and everyone except ourselves.

This is not healthy so we wanted to young ladies to know that in order to flourish they must nourish themselves FIRST

March Update:

Bowling is so fun. We love field trips with Sunnybrook!

March Update:

Norma Jean Sandoval & her husband Derek hosted her first workshop! The boys from Big Springs Ranch for Children ages 6 – to highschool came out to Uvalde spent a few hours at the airport with the wonderful tour guide Hunter from Uvalde Flight Center.

After that Kimberly Fulton Huffstutler welcomed them to fishing in their pond & wait it doesn’t stop there! After a full day of fun they spent the rest of the evening at sonic playing volleyball with some of our fellow ladies of Chicktime!

Thank you so much for hosting Norma Jean. It was such a beautiful day! We are also so grateful for Kim Huffstutler for organizing & helping host this workshop!

March Update:

It was a BEAUTIFUL day to be outside Saturday and that is exactly what we did at Chicktime-Bulverde. Thanks to Michael Carman , Levi, and the other amazing members of the Alamo City LX Modern Mopar Group for hosting this months Chicktime. It was very exciting to see the line of Chargers, Challengers, and the Jeep driving onto the SJRC Campus here to educate the youth on: what it takes to buy a car, car maintenance, car safety, insurance, and just a lot of car talk. They even let the youth start their cars. They were so trilled to be able to sit behind the wheel of such a “expensive, fancy” car as one of the kids put it.

March Update:

Great time together putting together our March drop off! Missed our KC! Green stencils, green nail polish and Easter candy! Good food at Panera and great fellowship!

March Update:

Our March workshop was fabulous! Thank you Lora Williams for inspiring us ( as always) with your words about our road to recovery ! We look forward to hearing from you again next year!

March Update:

Selene brought totes for everyone to decorate! Some girls would start something, not like it and scribble over it but then they would just change the plan and paint something different over it. I thought that was so beautiful. Mistakes into masterpieces.

Next they had Donuts and Gatorade and watched TV, talked about spring break plans, played with puzzles Danielle donated and just hung out and mingled. The workers even painted a tote

March Update;

Three visits to the Center this month.

Nursing students, regular volunteers, and church youth groups.

March Update:

Pictures are Coming from our March workshop! 

Materials

Chalkboard
Chalkology Chalk Paste
Stencils
Rags to Dap Paint

Procedure

1. Place stencil on chalkboard. Tape it on to make it to stay in place.

   2. Remove stencil and continue to next stencil until your design is complete.

   

   

   

   

   

   
   

3. Allow to dry.

Materials

Canvas
Broccoli 
Paints
Paint Brushes
Paper to Cover Table
Paper Plate

Procedure

1. Paint the whole canvas the light sky blue color with an actual paintbrush. I even paint the sides of the canvas to give the piece a more finished look when it is done and hanging on the wall or sitting on a shelf. Allow a few minutes for the paint to dry before continuing. Put some paper down under the canvas to keep the paint off your table!

   
   
   

2. Now the fun Paint With Broccoli begins! Squirt some white paint out on a paper plate. Dip the head of the broccoli into the paint and then onto the top area of the canvas to make clouds. Dab the paint, don’t brush it around. Make the clouds light and airy with rounded edges. Try not to add more and more paint because they get too solid-looking. 

   
   
   

3. Using some of the brown paint and a paintbrush, paint a trunk to the tree that starts at the bottom edge of the canvas. The trunk will extend about one-third of the way up the canvas and get narrower as it goes up.

4. From the top of the trunk make 4-6 branches that reach out to about an inch from the edges of the canvas. These branches will keep dividing and branching out into smaller and smaller branches. 

It may be a good idea to practice this on some newspaper before beginning to paint on the canvas. It usually helps get a better idea of size and shape on the canvas.

5. NOW BACK TO THAT FUN PAINT WITH A BROCCOLI PAINTBRUSH!

Place four blobs of paint on a clean paper plate using the two different tones of pink, the red-violet and the green paint. Place the blobs fairly close together so the head of the broccoli will dip into all four blobs at once. Remember to dab and not to brush the broccoli and paint around.

6. Paint the Buds on the Redbud

With a second piece of fresh broccoli, dip into the four blobs of paint and then dab the paint onto the canvas. It will make a mottled grouping of the four colors. The idea is to get the paint to look like the multi-colored buds of the blooming redbud tree. Again, like with the clouds, the idea isn’t to get a solid mass of color but a lighter more airy look. You should be able to see some of the sky through the buds of the tree you are painting.

This is a four-part, in-depth workshop on the power of positive affirmations. 
Each part will be broken down with instructions. 
Most of the supplies can be purchased at Dollar Tree.

Opener

Materials
Strips of Paper
Cups
Writing Utensils

Procedure

At the start of the workshop, strips of paper were handed out to the girls to write down all the negative things that hold them down….only they would see the list. The girls were asked to fold the strips of paper and put them in a cup.

Ice Breaker

Materials

Hand-Held Mirror
List of Positive Affirmations

Procedures

Gather the papers and tell the girls to now focus on the reason Chicktime is there… to teach them about positive affirmations and how they can help them to move forward … dream big…and claim who they were called to be.  Share personal things that have weighed heavy on your heart and have kept you from reaching your dreams at times. Then explain how positive affirmations changed your heart and attitude. To help the girls practice making positive affirmations, pass a mirror around so the girls can look in the mirror and loudly proclaim affirmations they want to make. Have a list of positive affirmations to assist them if needed.

Positive Affirmations Craft

Materials
Scissors
Magazines
Stickers/Jewels (Dollar Tree has a ton, but Amazon has positive affirmation stickers)
Mod Podge
Sponge Brushes
Canvases
Polaroid Camera
Film

Procedure

Use a Polaroid Camera and have volunteers help take pictures of all the girls .
The craft of the day is to paste that picture in the middle of a canvas and use stickers above the picture to spell out – I AM… Then the girls will create a positive affirmation canvas with the picture as thecenter focus! The conversations between volunteers and girls during this activity can be amazingly FABULOUS and REAL!

Positive Affirmation Snack

A homemade cookie cake with positive affirmations on it was shared with lemonade!

Closing

Then make a symbolic gesture of tearing up the strips of paper with the negative thoughts the girls wrote out to tell the girls those thoughts no longer have a hold on them.

March Update:

March 2022:

March event is in the books! Today at Vista Maria we painted canvas with watercolors and the girls wrote in aspirations and/or affirmations. As always, everyone had their unique style and they all turned out fantastic! It was a perfect activity for a rainy, dreary day!

March Update:

Wow! Incredible! Awesome! Just a few words to describe our time with the teen girls Boysville, Inc. at our March workshop this morning!

Workshop leader, Eva Irwine, showed up with pure enthusiasm to teach the girls the importance of positive affirmations! At the start of the workshop, strips of paper were handed out to the girls to write down all the negative things that hold them down….only they would see the list. The girls were asked to fold the strips of papers and put them in a cup.

We gathered the papers and Eva told the girls to now focus on the reason she was there… to teach them about positive affirmations and how they can help them to move forward … dream big…and claim who they were called to be. Eva shared personal things that have weighed heavy on her heart and have kept her thoughts negative which in turn held her back on reaching her dreams. She then explained how positive affirmations changed her heart and attitude. To help the girls practice on making positive affirmations, Eva passed a mirror around so the girls could look in the mirror and loudly proclaim affirmations they wanted to make. She had a list to assist them if needed. Then Eva had a Polaroid Camera and volunteers helped take pictures of all the girls . The craft of the day was to paste that picture in the middle of a canvas and use stickers above the picture to spell out – I AM…

Then the girls created a positive affirmation canvas with the picture as the center focus! The conversations between volunteers and girls during this activity was over the top FABULOUS and REAL!

A homemade cookie cake with positive affirmations on it was shared with lemonade!

 

We then made a symbolic gesture of tearing up the strips of paper with the negative thoughts the girls wrote out to tell the girls they no longer have a hold on them.

We ended our time together in prayer led by one of the teen girls . She thanked God for sending the Chicktime ladies to bring arts and crafts and to remind them that they are worthy of a better life and that people actually care about them!

I’m still crying.

We are grateful for our workshop leader, Eva Irwine and the volunteers who showed up today .

Chicktime brings hope to youth who need it so…and today these beautiful women gave hope in a beautiful and gentle way.

God is good.

February Update:

Materials

 Astrobrights cardstock
Paper cutter 
Stapler
Scissors.
Curtain Rod or Dowel Rod

Here are the specific Astrobrights colors I used to create the ombre effect:

Make a second chain using the same steps as above, but this time add one less chain. Repeat this step to create another matching chain. Continue making a set of two chains, with one less loop than the previous chains.

Once you have made 19 chains, hang them from a wood dowel or curtain rod that is long enough to hold the chains. Adjust the paper loops as needed to hide any staples.

February Update:

February drop and feeling excited! Can’t wait to see the girls’ finished masks to celebrate Mardi Gras. A huge thank you to our workshop leader, Amanda Martin and H-E-B for the drinks and snacks. #HEBHelpingHere

Materials

• Canvas
• Washable glue OR a hot glue gun and glue sticks
• Spray paint or craft paint in the color of your choice
• Pencil
• Saying – you’ll either hand draw or print
• Transfer paper (optional)

Procedure

Step 1: Think of/find a pattern that inspires you, and draw/trace it on your canvas with a pencil. 
Now if you aren’t feeling very creative or you want to make it more exact, there is another option. You can print something from the internet and place the paper down on the canvas with a piece of carbon transfer paper in between. Trace with your pencil and the design will end up on the canvas!

Step 2: Go over your design with glue. Make sure you don’t press the glue down as you apply. If you find that your glue settles flatter than you want, go over your design one more time once it has dried. You could also use dimensional fabric paint for this project.

Step 3: Let the glue dry 

Step 4: Spray paint the canvas any color! I liked the clean look of white on white.

February Update:

The 3rd Saturday of every month is sacred to us. We plan our personal agendas around our committed time with the girls who live at Boysville. We don’t want to let them down. They’ve been let down way to many times in their life.

 

February is sacred to our workshop leader, Kelly Hoog. For the past SEVERAL years she has committed to leading a cooking or baking activity

( her passion) in honor of her birthday month. Kelly understands the importance of what Chicktime has set out do…. Help the girls feel valued and empowered to live a life of purpose!

Coco Maradiaga purchased the girls earrings as a special treat. The girls were so excited and immediately put them on! #blessed

We pray that their hearts are as full as their tummies today.

As always- we ended our time together with a circle prayer. One of the teen girls said the prayer and it was simply beautiful!

February Update

We were not able to see the girls for Valentine’s Day, but we made sure they felt loved by dropping off Valentine gifts for each girl!
