The first part of the party was a craft....they made these Christmas trees. The bottom is a decorated can.
Her is Kraig with his teacher, Mrs. Bruce. We sort of tricked him into taking the picture. I asked him if I could take his picture with her, and he told me no. So, she sat down next to him, and asked him to tell her about his tree....I called his name so he would look up....and Voila! He even smiled for me... :-)
Next, they ate....
Here is the placemat each of the children had....Kraig's is still on our dining room table, he wouldn't let us put it away when we put up Christmas decorations....
Then they had their gift exchange, carried out by playing Pass the Pickle. The pickle played music, and when the music stoppeds, whoever had it got their gift. (Each child had to bring a wrapped book for the gift exchange.) The funny part is, the parent sitting next to Kraig had a Christmas watch that played music....so we could never hear when the pickle stopped, because her son kept making her watch play. It was fun...and everyone got their book!
Then the class sang songs, some Christmas that they have been learning, and some everyday....
Kraig LOVES to sing (and dance), and he sang along with every song.
This was the dinosaur song...they walked in a circle, then got on the floor to "eat", then walked some more, then laid down to "rest", then walked some more, and then put their hands up like claws and roared. I wondered where the roar had come from...he's been doing that at home. I like this picture,though, because notice Kraig's hands are in his pockets; he's just walking nonchalantly in the circle. Cool dude.....yes, he is!
And of course, no function is complete without a class picture....
