Many Martial Arts and Fitness Studios offer self defense classes you can take with your teens.

There are many ways you can preserve the summer memories.
1. Photo Throw Blanket
Turn the pictures into a customized throw blanket. When the winter storms come, you can wrap yourself in a warm blanket and dream of summer.
If you know how to quilt, you’d love to have photos printed on the fabric you can sew into your quilt. (A bestseller on Etsy!)
