At the end of this week, we will light the third candle of Advent, the candle of joy. We will focus on the gift of joy that Christmas brings us this week. We will create a few gifts for our families, to share the joy of Christmas in our homes. We will sing Christmas carols and read stories about fictional Christmas adventures. We will count elves through the fingerplay, “Five Little Elves.” Friday is our Christmas program! Santa might even make an early Christmas visit to say hello to all the good girls and boys in the class!
Next week, we will have birthday parties for Jesus on Monday and Tuesday. We plan to decorate holiday cookies. If anyone would like to send in something special for the children to enjoy on these days, feel free. There are twelve children in the class each day.
