The SICKIES...
The PARTY...
Our daycare week...
We have been busy at daycare enjoying the season!! :) We LOVE making crafts and preparing for the holidays.. and this year was no different! We started out our celebration with many color pages of Santa, frosty, and so on! Then we moved on to watching some Christmas movies/shows (Shrek the Halls, Chipmunk Christmas, Elmo's Christmas Countdown, etc.), then we read many Christmas books (Thanks to Nina and Papa Hamann who are our suppliers!) and then on to the extra fun stuff... arts-n-crafts! Here is a look at our Christmas ornaments we made! (I got the recipe from my daycare friends!)
Recipe:
Cinnamon Christmas Ornaments
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup cinnamon
1 T glue
Mix together, roll out and cut out with cookie cutters. Let air dry for 24-48 hours and then decorate! (They smell YUMMY too!!!) - - yields about 10 small ornaments.
Then we had LOTS of baking!! The kids favorite job is cracking eggs of course! :) We made sugar cookies, peanut butter cookies with a hersheys kiss, Christmas pretzels with m&m's, pretzel sticks with almond bark, Honey Bunches of Oats "snowballs" (thanks "Cole" I love these!), puppy chow, a carmel chex mix, rice crispy bars and I am sure I am forgetting some!!! WOW... we were busy!!! Take a look...
After our baking craze, we went back to craft-making!!! We decided to decorate some cute little bags for Christmas. Here is a peek at those...
And finally... we made it to our daycare Christmas Party!!! I got each of the kids a package of Color Wonder markers with a book, a coloring book, and a SANTA Mr. Potato Head! They loved it and were excited to color!!! :)
Tomorrow after Nick is off work we plan to head back to I.G. for a family Christmas with Nick's extended family on Christmas Eve, Nick's immediate family on Christmas morning and noon and then on to my Mom's for Christmas afternoon/evening. Then back home on Friday to see what Santa left us here at home! :) We are excited to celebrate with everyone.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :)
