Dressing themselves for the first time is a rite of passage for all big kids, but designing their own T-shirts can be the pinnacle of self-expression. After pooling slogan ideas from her own first-grade class, schoolteacher Meri Zeiff founded verymeri, a line of clever tees created by kids for their peers. Designs and messages range from anti-homework, pro-video-game options to simpler, uplifting messages like a grinning sun that says Shine. With 3 percent of all proceeds going to both the little designer and Free Arts for Abused Children, a nonprofit organization that provides arts services for at-risk youth, a verymeri T is something in which your grandchild will look good and feel good, too.
