Happy Holidays!

So often, the most important things in a child's life are not the big events but the accumulation of small details.

Here are some of the small details that brought joy to our December days.
 


G.'s & L.'s dad came in to school to speak to us about Christmas.


K. brought in Christmas cookies for the whole school to decorate.



Here are some of the decorated cookies. 



M.'s and E.'s mom came in to speak to us about Hanukkah.  Here M. is showing us her personal menorah.



M.'s and E.'s mom shared many Hanukkah songs with us. The children are singing the Dreidel song and spinning like dreidels.


We hear Santa's jingle bells!  Santa has parked his sleigh and reindeer in the forest.  The children are looking out the window and are able to catch a glimpse of the reindeer!  The teachers were not quite as fortunate.



We are so grateful that Santa was able to visit us during our holiday party.  Here the children are asking Santa questions.  Santa was so happy to hear all the songs we sung to him.



From our little corner of the world to yours, wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and a very happy holiday season!
