An easy learn to knit project for teaching the purl stitch are these knit bangle bracelets, worked in two colors in reverse stockinet stitch.
Learn to knit class starts this Friday at the Wisdom Arts Club. Details here!
Edited to add, I've made the pattern available as a free download on ravelry. Enjoy!

Oh my gosh. Felix is the coolest, seriously!! SO cute!! Aw, I miss you guys!
They are cool.
They are so fabulous! What a brilliant way of making stockinette _do_ something. Love the colors and the cool kid. Shaka brah.
Those look like a great project for all ages! Good luck with the class.....my kids had their first knitting lesson at school the other day (all the kids get lessons in the schools in Shetland) and Sage is going to make a snake to befriend the one I made for him!
Could these work for your kids' group? They would love them! Cute!
Mary-Heather: we miss you too. Pinkberry will never be the same.
