Kailey's class Christmas Party

On Friday (December 19th) we had Kailey's class Christmas party. I only had one parent call to volunteer, so I begged Bruce to come help me keep the kids entertained. I planned a few projects for them to keep us busy. We first had them decorate a little frame that I would put around their picture and it would go on a train. This was the class gift that we gave to Ms Anderson.

I think it turned out pretty cute! Ms Anderson LOVED it!!!

Next we had them decorate a Christmas ornament and then wrap it up in a Christmas bag so they could give it as a gift to someone they knew. The kids seemed to have a lot of fun and we're pretty creative.

We then had them all sit in a big circle and we had Ms Anderson read the Night Before Christmas story... with a few twists. Each kid brought a gift to exchange. In the story it had "left" and "right" added through out the story. The kids would then pass them in that direction. When the story was over, which ever present they were holding was theirs to keep. They loved it and had a ton of fun.
Ms Anderson was very sweet and bought presents for each of the kids. She doesn't have kids of her own so she seemed to have fun buying for each of them.After, they had Christmas cookies and capri suns for treats. The kids had a ton of fun and so did the adults. It was a great party!
