By supporting not-for-profit organizations in their special events, Joan entertains not only at Easter but all year round. Whether celebrating the seasons or participating in festivals,
Joan believes in giving back to the community and she does it in a unique way. The festive atmosphere is enhanced when children and adults alike gravitate to her continuous-intake hands-on
pysanky pavilion where everyone from 6 to 96 learns while being creative and takes away a beautiful keepsake of the event. It's a yearly tradition!
We can't wait for social gatherings to resume!

Partners in Education
We've been collaborating with teachers and schools since 1991. Whether in the classroom or at home online learning, making pysanky provides a strong curricular connecton and integrates
with many disciplines such as visual, multicultural and language arts, social studies, math and science. Students learn:
- a technique that is rewarding and forgiving
- communication skills such as listening
- safety and how to work with delicate items
- sharing
- a cultural and traditional experience
Accessible and affordable supplies from Baba's Beeswax together with our free Pysanky Online Teacher Guide and YouTube Video
Learn to Write Pysanky the traditional way with beeswax and dyes for Teachers, Parents and Students have proven that students in all
grade levels K to 12 are highly engaged while learning. For physical classroom teaching check out this list of classroom supplies
or give us a call.

But if you think that egg decorating is just for Easter, think again! How about a holiday design for Mother's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas.
