We learned a little bit about the holidays of Hanukkah and Kwanzaa. We noticed that these two holidays, along with Christmas, centre around being with the ones we love while enjoying music, yummy food, gift giving, and general quality time together. We sure had a fun time dancing along with Elmo to a dance for Kwanzaa and playing the Dreidal game with our friends. We also made a Kinara and sorted/patterned coloured candles.
Our letters this week were W and X.
The countdown to Christmas is on! We have been keeping track of the days we have left; building the number with our number blocks and writing the number on Bob the chalkboard elf.
The Kindness Elves, Ted and Fred have returned. We were so excited to see them! Each evening they have been leaving a new kindness idea in our advent calendar and finding new places to hide for us to find them. This week we made doggy treats for the pups in our lives, wrote letters to nurses for all their hard work, practiced allowing others to go out the door before ourselves and helped set up the Christmas tree. I cannot mention the 5th one, as it has turned into a very special gift.
We cannot wait for our first PJ day on Friday!
