Hello! My name is Gretchen and I have 20+ years teaching experience in PreK through 1st grade. I was also a Director of a church-based preschool for several years.
I am an artist and have taught adult and children's classes in an art studio that my mother owns. 
I have 2 grown children and 4 granddaughters! As well as, 3 fur babies! The little guy my business is named for is Vinnie (aka Doodle!) Sadly, he has since passed, but we had 10 wonderful years together and I miss him everyday.  

In the blogs to follow I plan to share with you many ideas and techniques that I have gained from my experiences in education. I will also post freebies, products and clip art that I have created for use in the classroom or for the home-schooled. Most of my ideas and products will be geared toward PreK through Grade 2, however the clip art can cross over many grades and areas.
