Nia Ballerina Stocking Stuffers Books and Calendars
TIS THE SEASON EDITOR'S NOTE The holidays are one of my favorite times of the year. Aside from my very favorite the part (the food), I love the look of excitement on little ones faces as they open their gifts. Last year Brown Girls Do Ballet launched it's
1
st ever Holiday Gift Guide and it was a success! This year we've decided
to make it even bigger but to only include small shops. Big things come in small packages, right?
Small shops make the world go round. Small businesses make a major economic impact and often give back more to the community. We love small shops because they fully align with our goals of creating community. Most of the items that were chosen this year happen to all be female created as well. What a better way to show our young brown ballerinas the power they harness. This holiday season shop small and remember...the future is female.
Happy Holidays, -t
