secret keeper girl

if you have a daughter between the ages of 8 and 12.....you simply must try to get your daughter to ones of these events! it's called secret keeper girl and you can find out more on their website HERE.

this event created by and based on the book by dannah gresch focuses on the true meaning of beauty and modesty. complete with fun songs, up and out of your seat involvement, quiet time with mom, prayer, and even a fashion show.....these ladies have created an event that is well worth it.

we picked up a few books at the event and i'm planning on beginning the 8 great dates book with the girls soon!

one aspect of their program talked about the modesty project.....they are aiming to collect 50,000 signatures and then dannah gresch will advocate with the children's fashion industry for change....here is the petition wording below and a link to sign it yourself is HERE.

Sign The Modesty Project Petition

We believe that the fashion industry is pressuring little girls to grow up too fast! The findings of two years of study by an APA (American Psychological Association) task force state that clothing, which makes girls appear older, and the associated marketing efforts are linked to eating disorders, low self-esteem, and depression. Ironically, this early sexualization presented to young girls also has “negative consequences on girls’ ability to develop healthy sexuality.” We would like to request that industry leaders send a message to the fashion industry that we want to purchase age-appropriate clothing for our little girls and would like the fashion industry to evaluate the clothing they design and the messages they send to our girls through advertising.
