Celebrating Christmas

We spent the first week of advent really getting into the spirit of Christmas. We have lots of bunnies who like to draw, so paper and crayons were available to draw our class Christmas tree. We learned the important players in the first Christmas story and had many reenactments with the Fisher Price nativity set. We read Jesus, Me and my Christmas Tree, decorated our tree according to the book, and then we sang and danced! (lyrics below) We also made Christmas cards with stars and tree shapes. More fun to come!!

(to the tune of London Bridges)
Let's clap around the Christmas tree, Christmas tree, Christmas tree.
Let's clap around the Christmas tree; Come along and clap with me.

Then substitute "clap" with other actions such as stomp, march, fly, wave, kick, hop...
