Finding adventures in daily happenings In this day and age a personal letter can be an experience for a chiid, feels Grace M. Stanistreet of Adeiphi University's Chul- dren's Centre. It is a way of reaching him, because he is impress- ed with the importance of receiving mail, because it can be re-read and shared, and it can be saved. A letter can say things that might be difficuit to say f ace to face. For exampie, some people f eel awkward in sayirig, '1 love you," but they can write it with ease. And some are equally awkward in re- ceiving such a statement face to f ace. Have you had the experi- ence of saying to a child, <'What happened to you to- day?" and receiving the an- swer, "Nothing!"? There was a book published, "'Nothing Ever Happens on Our Street," and it caused Dr. Stanistreet to think of what a. happening is. For lots off people noth- ing ever happens. Why? Be- cause lire engines go by and they don't see or hear them . . . sea gulis fly overhead and they don't look Up. To have something hap- pen you have to have -your eyes and ears open s0 they can see and hear. It would be fun one day to count how many things do happen to you. There îs a book about a boy who says, "Nothing ever happens to me." H1e sits on hifs f ront steps - a parade goes by, a wedding, a funer- ai, children looking for a iost dog, a mother looking For rainy . days, sick-in- beci da»~ or any days when chlldren are in that "'what do I do now"' mood, why flot try having them make a po- tato puppet! Choose a potato with character, and cut a hole, in one end to accomnmodate a child's index inger. Eyes, nose, mouth, hair, a hat can be created with anything interesting on hand-cioves, candy, buttons, yarn. Let your child use his imagin- ation. For the puppet's "body," select a colorful handker- chief or square of material. Whcn the cloth is draped over the index finger, which supports the puppet head, cut two small siits in the garment to accomimodate the thumb and third linger for puppet hands. for a iost child. But he secs none of them because he's busy being sorry for him- self. Nothlng ever happens to him! So you have to be ready - to have something hap- pen to you. Too often children think off happenings as only those important things about them, like having tonsîls out, going on a plane, to the circus, or a big basebali' game, or a picnic. These are important, and sometimes great, but they can't have these every day.' Happenings go on about every one of us ahl the time, but we have to notice them and take part in them if we want anything to happen. One day notice and count ail the happenings about you. It's fun! Do try it some - time.

Then, add several extra bonus points to your f ashion score by sewing them yourself! You'll find that you can make garments at a frac- tion of their retail store cost if you scw separates and team them up together in unique combinatiofls. The first step on the way to cutting clothing costs is to select patterns that in- clude various views'for sev- eral dîtlerent fashions. 'There arc numerous wardrobe patterns fthat have flared skirts, straight-leg pants, tunics, jackets and sot t dresses all in one package, The buying of one pattern for several itemns is most economical, since the price of one multi-pattern is f ar lower than the total price for many individual pat- terns. Sewilig scI)arales With wise coordination of fabrics, a closet f uli of sep- arates can easily be sewn. Look for multicolored prints and plaids to match up with solid coloi' coordinates. For example, choose a cropped jacket in a check that can be worn over checked pants (to create a suit look) , over solid pants or over a skirt. With inter- changeable p)arts for school - tirne outfits you can create the illusion of owning enough fashions to look fantastic on just a shoe- string lbudget. When buying fabrie, pur- chase only as much as the back of the pattern suggcsts. Onie calsy way to go off 10 school ini style and stili save rnoney is to :ew your college wardrobe. Separattes with imany inter- ciiaingeabi)e pieces in aivariety of fabrics and colors are the nîost econoumicail.
