KIDS LOVE APRIL FOOL’S DAY: And so do we. Sure, we’re not the pranksters we used to be, but most of us still at least give a passing thought each April 1 to pulling a fast one on someone – usually someone near and dear. So, what better way to counter the “Mama, (this)” and “Mama, (that)” you’ve tolerated all week from the little ones with a little April Fool’s payback. But trust us, it’s not conniving enough to induce the kicking and screaming you’d like to avoid. It’ll just throw ‘em for a loop. The Birmingham Shambhala Meditation CenterChildren’s Meditation Program, which is an introductory course for kids, ages 7-10. It comes complete with storytelling and kids yoga. Best of all, its free. All they ask is that you accompany the youngsters and participate in part of the program with ‘em. It’s from 1:30-3 p.m., so if you attend Sunday services somewhere else, this shouldn’t conflict. People don’t ask for the handshake shocker a second time, but chances are the kids’ll want another go ‘round with this one. Give the BSMC a shout at 595-8757 for more info, or go online to www.shambhala-birmingham.org.
