Holiday Ho-Ho-Hoedown

December 14, 2018 by Prestige Dance Studio

Looking for something fun and festive to do this weekend? We have you covered! Children ages 3-9 are invited to Prestige Dance Studio for our Holiday Ho-Ho-Hoedown Saturday, December 15th from 9:30am-12:00pm.

If you have been searching for kids holiday events in Cedar Rapids, you NEED to add our event to your list and get registered. We have been busy behind the scenes preparing and are so excited to share what we have been working on. We are anticipating LOTS of smiles and giggles!

Here are just a few of the reasons you should join us:

We like to have fun! Our staff is caring, energetic, and creative. Most importantly, we LOVE kids! We are planning a jam-packed morning full of activities, crafts, and dancing. Not to mention, a heavy dose of holiday cheer! We will make sure everyone has a wonderful time.
It is fun to spend time in the studio outside of class time. Joining us for one of our special events is an opportunity for your child to bond with their classmates in a social setting. There is more time for laughing and chatting! Dance truly is more fun with friends. When a dancer feels connected to his or her peers they are more confident in class.
We could all use a couple extra hours of prep time. This time of year is very busy for parents. We get it! How much could you check off your list in two (child-free) hours? Your child gets to have a fun morning and you get a couple hours to yourself. Win, win!

Have we convinced you? It is going to be a GREAT morning that you don’t want to miss. We highly recommend registering quickly to reserve your spot. Registration can be completed online or by sending us an email at prestigedancestudiocr@gmail.com. All the details are below.

We can’t wait to spend the morning with our enthusiastic guests. Let’s get into the holiday spirit!

Let’s Make A Holiday Project!

December 22, 2017 by Prestige Dance Studio

The cold weather combined with the holiday spirit is a perfect recipe for projects! From gingerbread houses to homemade ornaments, kids LOVE getting creative. As a bonus, you will LOVE being able to keep and display memories year after year, it is a win-win! We thought we would get your creative juices flowing with some holiday project ideas. We love the idea of making projects a holiday tradition just like many of us bake cookies with our loved one every year.

Holiday Decor
- Yarn Christmas Trees: These trees are super simple to make and odds are you can find the supplies somewhere in your house! This is the perfect craft for young children.
- Holiday Wreaths: You are bound to find a wreath in this giant list of 31 DYI ideas! Our personal favorite is the ornament wreath but whatever you choose will be fabulous!
- Outdoor Decor: Your kids are sure to flip when they see these items in your front lawn and they will have even more fun creating them with you!
Ornaments
- Handprint ornaments: These always make our hearts melt when we pull them out year after year. We love these creative ideas to spice things up!
- Love this list: There are some seriously sophisticated ideas in this list and we are LOVING it! Who doesn’t want to make something chic to go on the tree.
Gingerbread Everything
- House Inspiration: These houses are pretty amazing! Grab some inspiration from a detail or try the whole house!
- Cookies: This recipe is soft and tasty to eat! Cookies may be a great place to start for the younger decorator.
- Shortcuts: Gingerbread anything can be really tricky! Get some shortcuts here. Our favorite? Using graham crackers against old milk cartons instead, no one will know, we promise! hehe!

What are some of the holiday crafts you do with your family? At Prestige, family and fun play a big part in our studio culture. We want to encourage you to have some fun with the ones you love this holiday break! And make sure to show us all your holiday projects, we LOVE seeing them!

Best Of The Web: Gift Guide

December 10, 2017 by Prestige Dance Studio

Ready or not, the holidays are quickly approaching! Our families here at Prestige are busy shopping, attending special performances, baking cookies, and doing all the other great activities this time of year brings. Have you completed your holiday shopping yet? Do you have anyone on your list that you are completely clueless as to what to get them?? You can take a good sigh of relief because we have put together our best of the web: gift guide edition! We are sure that you will get re-inspired and find some great ideas, no matter who you are shopping for!

For The Dancer:

Last year, we put together the ULTIMATE gift guide for dancers. There are some amazing ideas that your dancer is SURE to love! We also found another great list from Dance Advantage. We would LOVE to get our hands on the Ballerina Cookbook listed in their post! Also, don’t forget that you don’t have to go very far for your dancer. We have so many great stocking stuffer and dancewear options right here at Prestige!

For The Creative:

If your loved one likes to explore art, DIY projects, and crafts, they will love anything from One Handcrafted Life’s creative gift list. For younger crafters, Martha Stewart has some GREAT ideas! Just reading these makes us want to start a new project!

For The Athlete Or Sports Fanatic:

Staying active is a very popular goal for the upcoming New Years Eve. Give your loved one a leg up by giving them something on this list from Very Well. They have some great message and stretching gifts that your dancer might enjoy as well! If sports are more their thing, try checking out this list from CNN. We mean, who wouldn’t want an NFL ugly sweater? hehe!

For The Professional:

If your gift recipient is hoping to push themselves and grow in their professional life this year, choose any of the books listed here on Inc! We are feeling inspired already, have you read any on their list??

For The Stressed

We mean stressed in the BEST way possible of course! For anyone who needs a little rest, relaxation, and calmness, there is nothing better than using a gift to help bring them there! This list from Out Of Stress made us feel more relaxed by just READING it hehe!
