GROWING THROUGH MUSIC: HOW CHILDREN LEARN BEST
The Milestones That Matter
Every January I convince myself we have a whole year to accomplish this, that, or the other. Then August arrives. School supplies replace pool toys, football schedules begin filling the calendar, and I find myself asking the same question every summer: Where did the time go?
Maybe it's because life moves so quickly that we sometimes forget to celebrate what really matters—not what we've done, but how much we've grown. That thought stayed with me as we created this month's Kids & Pets issue.
I was inspired by the young entrepreneurs at the Kids Makers Mart. While they're earning a little spending money, what they're really gaining is confidence, practical skills, people skills, creativity, resilience, and the satisfaction of building something themselves. Sometimes we underestimate what children can accomplish when simply given the opportunity.
Then there's Wookie, our three-year-old pup. He has become quite skilled at convincing Bryan and I that midnight salami should be part of his evening routine. After interviewing Tiffany from Central Ohio Muttessori, I realized Wookie may not be the only one in need of training. Apparently, I've reinforced a few habits I'd rather not keep. (But I do love salami...even at midnight.)
That same lesson came to life during my conversation with Julie Chambers. At Chambers Music Studio, students don't simply take lessons—they celebrate progress. Achievement pins, performances, and structured learning pathways help children and parents recognize growth every step of the way. It reminded me that accomplishments deserve just as much celebration as achievements on a scoreboard or as gifts under a tree.
As summer quietly slips way to make space for another season, I hope you'll take time to celebrate the milestones in your own family: the first recital, the first successful lemonade stand, the puppy who finally learns to stay, or simply the quiet growth that happens one day at a time. And above all, make some memories before the summer comes to a close.
Because when we look back years from now, it won't be the things we had that define the summer. It will be the people we watched become something they weren't before.

GROWING Through MUSIC
How Julie Chambers built a music studio that celebrates every child's journey.
ARTICLE BY MADISON MOROI PHOTOGRAPHY BY NICOLE DIXON PHOTOGRAPHIC
When Julie Chambers left her career as a public school music teacher in 2014, she walked away from something many people spend a lifetime pursuing: a stable job, benefits, and a clear retirement path! Almost everyone told her not to do it. "I really wanted to be able to make a bigger impact," says Chambers. "I felt limited."
What began as private lessons taught from her home has grown into Chambers Music Studio, a thriving studio with three locations, including its newest location in Worthington. The studio's growth reflects Julie's commitment to creating a learning environment where every decision is guided by what helps students succeed and thrive.
But the road wasn't easy. Julie built the business while raising three children—Amelia, 10; Brendan, 7; and Callahan, 4—balancing family with entrepreneurship. She quickly outgrew her home studio and searched for commercial spaces that would allow the sounds of kids & their music lessons. She closed on her first studio location in Bexley the month the pandemic forced businesses across the country to shut their doors.
Instead of giving up, she kept moving forward. As a mother, educator, and business owner, Julie understands what parents are seeking for their children. Confidence, growth, and the ability for their child to discover passions, develop discipline, and experience success. That understanding has shaped Chambers Music Studio into far more than a place to learn an instrument. It has become a place where children are encouraged, celebrated, and inspired to reach their potential.
At the heart of the studio is a philosophy Julie calls "Life at Chambers." Inspired by the idea that learning should be engaging and memorable, the concept focuses on celebrating milestones and helping families see progress every step of the way. Students
Julie Chambers and her family
might discover a hidden Composer of the Month, earn achievement pins, receive special recognition, or participate in community festivals that transform traditional recitals into celebrations. Every activity is designed to reinforce confidence, connection, and a love of music and learning.
While many music studios are built around talented musicians who teach lessons, Chambers Music Studio takes a different approach. Julie earned her degree in music education and studied educational psychology. That background continues to influence the way the studio operates today. "Most of the time when you take private lessons, they
have education in their instrument, but not in education," she explains.
At Chambers Music Studio, instructors receive ongoing training, attend staff development sessions, utilize teaching guides, and participate in regular meetings focused on improving the student experience. "We lean heavily into training," says Chambers. "We pay for our teachers to attend trainings."
The result is a learning environment designed around how children learn best. That commitment is visible through the studio's structured pathway. Children can begin with Mommy & Me Music Time classes, advance into Jam Band and the Piano Keys programs, and eventually progress to private lessons, ensembles, and higher-level musical instruction.
Rather than simply enrolling students in lessons and hoping they stay engaged, the studio provides a clear roadmap for growth. For Julie, that structure emerged from an important realization. "While we were seeing progress, families didn't always see it," she says.
Parents sometimes questioned whether their child was improving, even when teachers could clearly see growth. That insight inspired the team to become more intentional about family inclusion and celebrating accomplishments. Today, students earn milestone recognition, families receive more visibility into progress, and performances have evolved into larger community-centered events designed to showcase achievements.The approach reflects Julie's broader philosophy of continuous improvement. "We're always growing, and that's what we expect from our students," she says.
That mindset applies to students, teachers, leadership, and the organization as a whole. For families considering music education, Chambers Music Studio offers something unique: a place where children are taught by educators, supported by a community, and encouraged to develop confidence alongside musical skill.
It's a philosophy that began with one teacher's desire to make a bigger impact—and today, it's helping children right here in Columbus discover what they're capable of achieving.
Chambers Music Studio
One of the distinctive aspects of Chambers Music Studio is its structured approach to student development. Rather than simply enrolling students in lessons, Chambers provides a pathway that helps children build a lifelong love of music.
The pathway includes:
• Mommy & Me Music Time
• Jam Band
• Piano Keys
• Private Lessons
• Ensembles & Advanced Instruction
Along the way, students celebrate milestones through achievement pins, special recognitions, performances, and community events. The studio also incorporates fun educational experiences such as Composer of the Month activities and interactive challenges designed to keep students engaged. Families see their child's progress while giving students meaningful reasons to stay motivated, confident, and excited about learning.

summer is POPSICLE SEASON
KIDS AND POPSICLES ARE THE PERFECT SUMMERTIME PAIR
ARTICLE BY LINDA DITCH PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED
As temperatures rise, children race to the freezer for this frosty treat or wait anxiously for the approach of the musical ice cream truck. Making homemade popsicles is a fun, kidfriendly activity. These recipes feature kid-favorite flavors with an added taste twist. The only tricky part is waiting for them to freeze.
SPICED GRAPE POPSICLES
ingredients:
Makes 18 to 24
• 2 quarts Concord grape juice
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 12 whole cloves
• 4 cinnamon sticks
• 3 tablespoons whole allspice
directions:
Put all of the ingredients into a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to barely a simmer and let it cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour the juice through a cheesecloth-lined strainer into a bowl or pitcher to remove the spices. Allow the juice to cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate until well chilled. Pour mixture into popsicle molds. Freeze until firm.
CHERRY LIMEADE POPSICLES ingredients:
Makes 18 to 24
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup lime juice
• 2 cups tart cherry juice
directions:
In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat. Add the cherry juice and taste. Add additional sugar or water if needed. Let come to room temperature and then refrigerate until well chilled. Pour mixture into popsicle molds. Freeze until firm.
THE BEST DOG ADVICE Parents Rarely Hear
BUILDING A SAFER, HAPPIER RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CHILDREN AND PETS.
ARTICLE BY EMMA CARTER | PHOTOGRAPHY BY TIFFANY COPLEY
Tiffany Copley, founder of Central Ohio Muttessori School
When families imagine life with a dog, they often picture cuddles, companionship, and instant friendship with the kids. Tiffany Copley, founder of Central Ohio Muttessori School in Worthington, says reality is often more complicated—and far more rewarding when approached intentionally.
In fact, many behavior challenges families experience with pets begin with unrealistic expectations. "We have two parties with very little impulse control," says Copley. "A young child and a young puppy are both still learning how to navigate the world." Rather than focusing on instant friendship, Tiffany encourages families to focus first on boundaries, communication, and age-appropriate interactions. The result is often a stronger bond, fewer frustrations, and a safer environment for everyone involved.
For families welcoming a new puppy or dog, Tiffany believes success comes down to four key areas: teaching children how to interact appropriately, facilitating good behavior, involving kids in training, and creating positive ways for children and pets to learn to interact together.
When choosing a dog, don’t choose a puppy based on how cute they are. Tiffany recommends working with a reputable breeder or rescue organization that can help match a dog's temperament to your family's lifestyle and the ages of your children. The breeder has lived with the puppies for at least 8 weeks and knows each of those puppies' personalities. Those early decisions can make a significant difference in longterm success.

One of the biggest mistakes families make is expecting young children to naturally know how to interact with dogs. For children younger than preschool age, Tiffany often recommends a surprisingly simple approach: coexist, but largely ignore one another.
"If the child gravitates toward the puppy, redirect the child. If the puppy gravitates toward the child, redirect the puppy," she says.
While that advice may seem counterintuitive, it helps prevent fear, overstimulation, and bad habits from developing.
Young children are still learning self-control and may not understand gentle touch, personal space, or canine body language.
As children get older, interactions can become more intentional. Tiffany encourages families to establish clear boundaries. Children should never be allowed to do something to a dog that would be unacceptable toward another child, including pulling ears, climbing on dogs, bothering them while sleeping, entering crates, or interrupting them while eating.
high-energy moments, Tiffany recommends management before correction. "It's not fair to expect a four-year-old to respond to a jumping, biting puppy the same way an adult would," she says.
"The best relationships happen when children and dogs learn together, communicate clearly, and develop positive habits from day one."
For elementary-aged children, Tiffany teaches a simple "one, two, three" petting method. Children pet the dog three times and then pause. If the dog seeks more interaction, they may continue. If the dog walks away, the interaction ends.
Facilitating good behavior also means setting both kids and dogs up for success. Gates, leashes, crates, and designated safe spaces help prevent overstimulation for both kids and pets. During
One of her biggest recommendations is involving children in the process. "Learning happens regardless," Tiffany explains. "Even when you're not intentionally training, you're training." Children as young as four can participate in simple training exercises such as sit, down, and come, while younger children can help prepare meals, hand food to the dog, or assist with daily care routines. Training creates opportunities for meaningful interaction. Instead of wrestling, chasing, or roughhousing—which often leads to jumping, mouthing, and overstimulation—Tiffany encourages structured activities that promote communication. Recall games, stationary cues, and tricks are among her favorites. "Kids love tricks," she says. "They're fun, and they help improve communication with your dog."
Tiffany's approach isn't about perfection. It's about helping families develop realistic expectations, stronger communication, and positive habits that allow children and pets to grow together successfully. For Northwest Columbus families considering a dog, welcoming a new furry family member, or struggling with behavior issues, having an experienced resource like Tiffany Copley nearby may be one of the best investments they can make in family harmony.
WHERE YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS TAKE FLIGHT
YOUNG BUSINESS OWNERS GAIN REAL-WORLD SKILLS WITH EVERY SALE
When most kids think about summer, they think about swimming pools, vacations, and sleeping in. At Olentangy Caverns' Kids Makers Mart, they're thinking about inventory, pricing, customer service, and sales.

Held the second Sunday of each month from June through October, the market gives young entrepreneurs the opportunity to create a product, build a business, and sell directly to customers. From handmade jewelry and crochet creations to lemonade, artwork, and dog treats, every booth is run by kids eager to share something they've made—and discover what happens when someone chooses to buy it.
The idea for the Kids Makers Mart started with a simple lemonade stand. Katie Meyerdirk, who oversees marketing and events at Olentangy Caverns, watched her own children become fascinated by selling lemonade in their Worthington Hills neighborhood.
"I saw how excited they were when someone wanted something they had made," says Meyerdirk. "They felt like they had done something very grown-up."
That small observation sparked an experiment.
Last summer, Meyerdirk launched the first Kids Makers Mart, unsure whether families would sign up. Instead, the response exceeded expectations. The markets quickly filled, waitlists formed, and the concept has grown to more than 25 young vendors.
"Our family was planning a trip to the caverns when we discovered the Kids Makers Mart," says Lori Pringle, a parent of a young entrepreneur. "Sara and her friend were already making earrings, so they were extremely excited to sign up."
What makes the event special isn't simply that kids sell products. It's everything they learn along the way. Young entrepreneurs develop ideas, create products, build displays, set prices, manage inventory, and interact with customers. Some even borrow startup money from their parents, gaining an early understanding of investment, budgeting, and financial responsibility. The businesses may be small, but the lessons are anything but.
Sara and her friend Josi launched Stones and Jewels , transforming colorful building bricks into one-of-a-kind jewelry. After realizing many younger shoppers didn't have pierced ears, they expanded into bracelets—a lesson in listening to customers and adapting to demand. "My favorite thing is talking to
the customers and helping them figure out what they want," Sara says.
Kids also learn by watching one another. As they explore neighboring booths, they notice creative displays, unique products, and successful sales techniques that inspire new ideas for their own businesses.
Meyerdirk is equally impressed by the confidence the market builds. Many adults worry today's children spend too much time behind screens and not enough time interacting face-to-face. Yet young vendors routinely greet customers, answer questions, make change, and conduct transactions with surprising ease.
Parents play an important role, too. Rather than stepping in, they encourage their children to take the lead. "We got them started, but they really ran the booth and talked to customers," says Sara's mother, Lori Pringle. "It was a great learning experience, and they had a blast."
For a few hours each month, children become creators, marketers, salespeople, problem-solvers, and business owners. While many leave with money in their pockets, the most valuable thing they take home is confidence—real world skills, and the belief that they can build something all their own.

Behind each of our 200+ City Lifestyle magazines is someone who cares deeply about their community. Someone who connects people, celebrates businesses, and shares the stories that matter most. What if that someone was you?
Or maybe it’s someone you know. If this isn’t the right time for you, but you know someone who could be the perfect fit, we’d love an intro.
CELEBRATING THE END OF SUMMER
Before backpacks replace beach towels and calendars fill with homework, practices, and routines, make time for a few experiences that create lasting memories and celebrate everything we love about summer.
PLAY - HAVE ONE LAST "YES DAY"
Before school schedules reclaim your calendar, surprise the kids with one day that's all about saying "yes." Yes to pancakes for dinner. Yes to ice cream before lunch. Yes to staying up late enough to watch the sunset, catch lightning bugs, or build the biggest blanket fort the family has ever seen. Years from now, they probably won't remember the toys they received or the shows they watched—but they'll remember the day of "yes."
CREATE - START A SUMMER TIME CAPSULE
Create a family time capsule you'll look forward to opening next year. Invite everyone to contribute something meaningful—a favorite photo, a ticket stub from a baseball game, a seashell collected on vacation, or a handwritten note about their favorite summer memory. Empty nesters and couples can create one, too, filling it with photos, postcards, menus from memorable dinners, or reminders of adventures shared together. Seal it away until next August.
CONNECT - SLEEP UNDER THE STARS
Some of childhood's greatest adventures happen right in the backyard. Pitch a tent, roast marshmallows around the fire pit, tell stories, play flashlight tag, or spread out a blanket and search the night sky for constellations. Add homemade ice cream, a favorite family movie projected outdoors, and breakfast on the patio the next morning for an experience your children won't soon forget.
Even empty nesters can embrace the tradition by enjoying a quiet evening around the fire, watching the stars emerge, or simply lingering on the patio long after sunset.

TREY & KATIE KENNEDY
ON MARRIAGE, KIDS, AND THE COMEDY OF REAL LIFE
Trey Kennedy makes a living finding comedy in regular life. Marriage. Toddlers. Yoga pants. The Thursday-night scramble between school dropoffs, soccer practice, and whatever has to be done by morning. Twelve years in, it shows: millions of followers across every platform, three stand-up specials, a sold-out Relatable Tour, and a style of humor fans send each other captioned, “Are you watching me?” He delivers the kind of comedy that travels because everyone’s living some version of it.
Katie, his wife of six years, is a former biomedical engineer who also built a modeling career. She’s now raising their kids and co-hosting Correct Opinions alongside Trey — the show where the two of them swap takes on marriage, parenting, and whatever came up that week.
Trey has been at this longer than people realize. An Edmond, Oklahoma kid who grew up playing basketball described himself as a “shy kid who never thought he’d be an entertainer.” He started making videos while attending Oklahoma State University. After building millions of followers on Vine before the platform shut down, he gave himself six months on Instagram and Facebook to see whether he could rebuild from zero. He did. Stand-up soon followed. His first special, Are You For Real?, streams on YouTube; the second, Grow Up, on Amazon Prime; the third, built around the Relatable Tour, wrapped earlier this year. “I’ve been trying to be funny every week for like twelve years now,” he says. A slow climb, made one bit at a time.
“I’ve been trying to be funny every week for like twelve years now.”
Most of what Trey writes lately starts in his own kitchen. Thomas is three and a half, and he is, in his father’s words, “a movie.” He narrates his own life from the moment his eyes open and mispronounces words in ways his parents now repeat to each other because no one else would believe them. His younger sister, Eva, is what Katie calls “the calm one.” With a third now in the mix, the Kennedys are officially outnumbered.
After six years of marriage, Trey and Katie have learned that the partnership runs best when it gets its own time on the calendar. So once a week, they leave the kids with a sitter and go out for coffee. “You need a system,” Katie says. “It’s about taking time to look each other in the eye. Not the kids. Not the cameras. Just each other.”
The same instinct shapes the work. Most of Trey’s trial and error happens onstage or on Instagram, but the first read is always Katie’s. “There’s only been one time ever I’ve had to be like, ‘you’re not doing that,’” she says. The rest of the time, she just laughs first.
