What We Did Today!

Today we did a lot of holiday arts and crafts. We used our hands and feet to make some momentous keepsakes for our families. We can't wait to send them home tomorrow! We also read My Santa Claus, sang Christmas songs and did a snow dance.

Reindeer & Dancing

Today was such a fun day at school.

 We went on a reindeer hunt! Ms Daria had hidden reindeer all over the room. The Children had a blast trying to find them all.

Clapping her hands to the beat of Jingle Bell Rock.

After our reindeer hunt we wanted to get into some Christmas spirit. So we put on some upbeat Christmas music. We played music and danced for quite awhile. We grabbed out our bells and was dancing around the room shaking our jingle bells. Before we knew it we had to wash up for lunch.  Their favorite song was Jingle Bell Rock by Alvin and the Chipmunks.                                                                    

Danced with all the ladies at school.

Pom-Poms and Turkey Feathers

Today we had a lot of fun making our feather for our turkey. We used actual feathers for the turkey. The children had a blast plus we even got to tickle each other with our feathers. We did some pom- pom sorting today. We sorted colors and sizes in different containers. They were very proud of them selfs today and everything they had accomplished.

Treasure Basket

Treasure Basket was the Item of the day in the I/T room. We finished up our  hand print turkey's and  we started  working on our classroom turkey but the treasure basket was the object of their eye most of the day. We had a really great day we read the book where does a turkey go? which they loved they were looking all over the page to find the turkey.

Leaves & Turkeys

Today was a fun, interesting day. We needed to make some room for our turkey so we took down our tree. The babies thought it would be a fun idea to place the tree on the floor and put the leaves on and off the tree. Later on in the day we painted with our hands, making handprint turkeys.
