LEARNING ABOUT ALL THE HOLIDAYS AT PRESCHOOL







I am very impressed with the pre-school Daniel attends. They are teaching the kids about all the different holiday. Monday and today they were learning about Hanukkah and made 2 different Hanukkah crafts. Today Daniel brought our kids menorah in for show and tell and got up in front of the class and explained to everyone about Hanukkah. The teacher told me he talked for about 10 minutes and I asked her what he said and she said he said " You light a candle everynight for 8 nights and then get a present each night after you light a candle" she said she asked him what else he does to celebrate Hanukkah and she said he said " we spin the spinning tops which he was referring to the dreidels and Grandma and Grandpa send us chocolate monies for our Hanukkah stocking" I guess for a 5 year old that was a pretty good explanation of the holiday. On Friday they are learning about Kwanza and making a craft to represent that holiday and then next Monday and Wednesday they are learning about christmas and making 2 christmas crafts and then next Friday is their class holiday party before they are on winter break for almost 3 weeks.

Those are great pictures. I love the first one of the kids together and Hailey's brown and pink coat/hat is adorable. They are so photogenic and Miss Hailey is looking so grown up these days! I wish my kids' schools would discuss other holidays too!
