Kids help me hack the MakerSpace sign! The OCD/everything needs to look perfect person in me had to let go and just let them design. I was only reminded once that "mom, you just told me to be creative!" Ugh, they are SO right. Kids are naturally creative creatures, we need to allow it more. #lifelessons #smartucate @makerspaces @makerfaire @makershed @nmhslmc #gomaples #APSMaker

I have traveled 463.7 miles in the past 4 days. I still have to drive back to Adrian from Grand Rapids but winning a Chromebook (which I will give to Grace) and connecting with SO many great educators from across the state made it worth every mile! #miched #smartucate #gomaples
