Opryland

I have to share that yesterday we got back from spending three days at Opryland. We did a Dreamwork Experiences package that was packed with tons of Shrek activities for the little man to do plus we went to see the Rockettes. We had an amazing time and I have no idea where the three days went.

Calen was very excited about his Shrek ears.

Christmas Fun

So I have been a horrible blogger and haven't been keeping up with post due to all the craziness of Christmas at home and in the classroom. There are more pictures of what we have done in the classroom but there are on my computer at work. SAD!!! But here are some pictures of our fun last day before break!!!

 

Christmas Tree Snack- the children covered waffle cones with green icing and put red and green M&M's on it.

The children did an amazing job with their musical. Here are some pictures;

The Elves

Dancing Dolls

Trains

Toy Soldiers

Mice

Bears

The Elves busy working!

 

 

I hope everyone enjoyed it!!!

 

Reindeer Chow

Today we had a special snack of reindeer chow. Each child received a plastic bag with pretzels, goldfish, marshmallows, M&M's, and cinnamon toast crunch. Then the children had to sort, count, and eat. YUMMM!!!!

 

 

Christmas

Yesterday we read the story Christmas in the Barn and then the children made a manager in a barn and Jesus.

 

 

The children didn't glue Jesus in the manager and were told that they will do that last step with their parents on Christmas Day. I hope you enjoying doing this special step with your child.

Creativity

I love when the children get creative with the toys in the room. Who would have thought links can be used to make fashionable jewelry.

Today we found Jingle sitting on our Christmas tree that he decorated with tissues.
