Would you enroll your child in a free online craft class?

Hi,
I love crafts and teach children art and crafts. I am thinking of starting an online craft class. I'll put up instructions for a craft activity every week, and kids who enroll should do it and send me a picture. I will look at it, give my comments and suggestions, and put up the pic of the child's craft on the website.... But I want to know if people would join... So would you enroll your child into a class like that?

Yes.

As a cratfter myself no I wouldn't at this stage DD is 7years old. When I teach her a new skill french knitting, regular knitting etc I find she needs an awful lot of direct assistance holding her hands around the needles etc.
I would think older children would be better.

I would, dd 5 loves craft, I enjoy it but not skilled cant knit etc so both of us could learn and where my skills are lacking dd will still progress.

Yes but it would depend on the cost.

I suppose the problem is that crafts are very physical things, my dds all do a lot of craft but I can't see how it would work online.

Yes, though I imagine any instruction would need to be both video and text for it to be the most effective for every one.
