The Nativity Story (3 yr. old style)

The angel Gabriel (also the name of Jillian's brother) came to talk to Mary. She was really scared at first. Mary was married to "Jofuss" and they went to "Beffleeham" where Jesus was born in a stable. That's where the animals were...but no elephants were there. The king was mean. Jesus got presents.

You're Invited!

Don't forget about our Christmas program on Thursday. It will be held in the auditorium and will begin at 11:00, so get there early to get the prime "picture taking" seat. Both 3's classes will sing, as well as the 2's class. We don't expect it to last more than 20 minutes and children will be dismissed as soon as it is over. Invite those friends and neighbors! There's nothing like a Christmas program to get you in the spirit!

Like a Clock with Wings...

...Time flies. I apologize for not posting on the blog for a while. I love this time of year even though it is so busy. Our class has been busy as well. The excitement is in the air. We've been practicing a new song for our Christmas program. (You'll love it, by the way). We've also been learning about the letters Ii and Jj. On Thursday, we played "Jack In the Box" and read about Jesus. The class water table (minus the water!) was set up with straw and a nativity set for the children. They played and played...but I wasn't prepared for the mess. Straw and shavings everywhere! So I apologize if your child came home with stuff stuck to his/her sweater. We tried to pick it all off, but.... What's Christmas without a few messes!
