Gingerbread Boy Part II

Today was Marc's last day of school before his 2 weeks off for Christmas break. As stated in the last post, the teachers gave up trying to get any "work" done with them this week. ;) As a fun send-off, the kids made gingerbread houses. Each family was assigned a certain "ingredient" to bring. During the last 1 1/2 hours of school, Mrs Grimm invited parent to come and make the houses with their child. So Samantha and I went to the school to help out.
The kids listened to "The Gingerbread Baby".After the story, the kids got to go get creative! Marc had fun decorating his house.
This is Marc's finished creation! Looks yummy!
The kids also got to decorate and eat a sugar cookie.
Samantha was getting jealous of all the kids eating their cookies, so I gave some of the pretzel "decorations" to keep her happy and content.
At dismissal time Mrs Grimm gave all the kids a new book called "Moosiltoe". It was a very cute book.....and one we didn't have yet. ;)
It was a very fun day to end the week before Christmas break! :)
