CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS


I had done several bulletin boards but for some reason I always forget to take pictures. Here is one in early December as we get ready for our Winter Festival. BTW that is not a big blue blanket it's a sign the carolers are holding ;)





These are some crafts the children did. Ginger Girls, 3D stars, glass bears stuck to the window. Colorful snowflakes and marshmallow snowmen.




I went crazy and crafted the hallway. Trying to transform it into a winter wonderland. Starting with letters to Santa.
Here is how I created the Christmas lights with gimp a glue gun and tissue paper
.I put colored snowflakes on the window with glue and liquid water colors. I dried the circles on wax paper and then stuck them on the windows.

The candy land hall way



I must give all the credit to my daughters teacher Ms Karla for creating the calendar. She did a great job.



In addition to some other crafts we made ginger bread men. After making the gingerbread me we told the children to put the little men in their windows so he could help the little elves when Santa arrived. They were really excited to share their ideas of how the gingerbread man could help. In the background you might be able to see the hanging candy canes and the Chinese lanterns we made.



My daughter's class looked more like a candy house.



I did all of this myself but the real gingerbread houses were a lot more work. Here are some of the ones we did in the class.

I did the class in a gingerbread but could never get a really good photo so I will have to upload a video.. Until then enjoy,..
