I think this is an excellent idea, Jean. Here in our part of the world
there are classes offered to parents on babywearing, and as someone who
can't grandsit without my sling and Ergo, I have often thought it would be
fun to hold a grandbaby wearing class. But I don't teach classes so this
has remained just a thought rattling around in my head.
