Welcome!
Hope you have a good time. Avoid the squirrels, after being used as poi they are rather twitchy and inclined to bite.

Well thank you much for the warning & Welcome. I tend to be leary of Squirrels any way. The old adage is true "You are what you eat." I watch for the Nuts!
Anyhow... Thank you & I hope to have loads of fun with My kiddos as well. I am working with them on enjoing Poi. They need an outlet. My youngest son has just turned 5 & my daughter is 6 now. They are both very hyper & need some thing to do & Poi is a great outlet! 
If you have any tips or tricks you can share to make it easier for us to learn I would be Greatful.

I thought it specifacally said to pick one...
But anyways, welcome to the neighbourhood.
Very cool to do poi with the kids together, just wondering,
1. do you swing fire?
2. do you let the kids light up too? ;-)
for tips and tricks check the tutorials they're a great help

it is & it gives them some thing to do when they are bored. I plan to have them decorate the socks so it makes it presonal. I hope that will inspire them to really like it & get creative with it.

Hey Hawkfeather,
If you're gonna tie and die the poi, why not makes shirts in matching colours so they can look cute on fairs and stuff when they show their poi tricks.

Heheh. Sounds like my rule about not hitting girls. First. If they hit then they are fair game.

Yes these are things I make btw. If you have something you want made tell me the specifications & I can make you what you want. The only down side is I am broke so I dont have any way to send things out so if any one really wanted some of the work they would have to send an SAS envelope here & I would ship it back.
No kiddin! Love & light to all my Spinning brother & sisters!

That's sad! *sad piggy*
nobody ever has to hit another person...
you can always talk, and even if the other person is drunk, you can always move out of the way.
we're all people.
