More Holiday fun

When school started Tuesday morning the first thing the kids wanted to do was find Freddy the Elf.  He wasn't in our circle time room.  We went on an elf hunt and found him upstairs in the narthex, under the big Christmas Tree.  He brought us a Look and Find book of Holiday Fun!  During reading time we got to look at it.  Now it's part of our classroom library.  We started working on making Christmas Trees using marble painting.  We put the trees in the bottom of a pan and put about 8 marbles in the pan with some paint.  The kids had fun rolling the marbles all around and decorating their tree!

Our finished Christmas trees.  We had a lot of fun making these!

Ellis brought in snack this week.  We had yogurt and fruit kabobs!  Yum! 

Such a cute idea. Fruit kabobs that look like The Grinch!!

The marble run is a favorite activity!

Playing The Candy Land gingerbread game...pull the candy cane and shapes come out.  Match them on your gingerbread boy or girl.

We celebrated Ellis birthday on Thursday.  Happy 4th birthday, Ellis!!

Thanks for another yummy treat...cupcakes with green frosting!!

 We heard several more holiday books...Clifford's Christmas, Merry christmas Mom and Dad, another version of The Gingerbread Man, and several more.  We also went upstairs to practice singing in the sanctuary for the first time! On Wednesday Freddy brought us red and white scented play dough.  Mrs. Claus made it for us...she heard we were doing so many good things she wanted to make us a special treat!  We used Christmas cookie cutters with the play dough. Thursday we went on a hunt to find gold and silver chocolate coins.  Each of us found one gold and one silver coin to take home with us.
