 * How do I add some custom css to my twenty-twelve child theme to remove categories
   from the bottom of each post?

 * Hi Catherine, try adding .entry-meta { display: none;}
 * If you don’t know where to find the css files, go to wp-admin/theme-editor.php.
   It would be called style.css

 * It worked perfectly removing the categories thank you, but it also removed the
   tags. Is there anyway to just keep the tags?

 * Hi Catherine, you wouldn’t be able to do that via CSS. You would need to go into
   the theme and remove the code.
