Christmas

We listened to Llama Llama Holiday Drama on CD. We did a fun song called the Reindeer Hokey Pokey. We painted foil ornaments with finger paint with the option of a qtip, craft stick, paintbrush, or our fingers (or hands) to paint with. This afternoon we made a Gingerbread House.
Thanks Big Emilea!

Christmas Around the World

http://www.timeforkids.com/photos-video/slideshow/five-fun-facts-about-hanukkah/24401
We read Is It Hanukkah Yet? We made and ate latkes. All the kiddos tried them, only 1 didn't like it, and most asked for seconds! I posted the recipe we used. One of our kiddos wanted to know why the peeled potatoes needed to be in water. So, we did a little science experiment and put a piece of potato in a cup with no water and a piece in a cup of water. They watched it all day to see the one with no water turn brown and yucky!
