Happy Thanksgiving! Our little turkeys had ourselves a gobble of a good time. We created our own little Cookie Turkeys: using Oreo cookies, Rollo’s, malt balls and candy corn for our edible decoration and created pine-cone turkey centerpieces to take home. For our events we played TURKEY TOSS, winning a SOFT FRIEND, and THANKSGIVING BINGO, winning a treat bag. And then we sat down to savor a yummy feast of turkey, olives, cranberry raisins, peanuts, strawberries, juicy apples, oranges, cheddar cheese cubes, cherry tomatoes, baby carrots, blueberry muffins, lemon bites, brownie bites, banana pudding, D’animals, applesauce pouches, pumpkin pie with whipped cream, orange juice and eggnog. And then we got to relax our little turkey bellies by watching A Charlie Brown’s Thanksgiving and The Mayflower Voyagers. This year I am super thankful to all of my preschool parents who have supported me through this pandemic, and their amazing kids…I couldn’t be here without you! I am grateful to all of you and look forward to the year ahead. Thank you!!!
