3 p.m. Saturday: The Morning Basket - Ageless & Inspiring Jennifer embraced the idea of a Morning Basket almost 12 years ago – before it was popular or even had a name!

In this workshop, you will learn the four essential things that will streamline your day and rebuild culture through the Morning Basket, brainstorm about how to build your own Morning Basket, learn how to implement Morning Basket with kids from high school to preschool, and talk about some common challenges you may encounter in Morning Basket time. |
