Kinder~ 50th & 100th Day of School Celebrations

I love all the little celebrations that Kindergarten has. They had a 50th & 100th day of school celebration and the kids were all so excited. The 50th day was their "Sock Hop" and all the kids came dressed up ready to boogie. They danced, played limbo, hula hoop games and had ice cream floats. What a fun day for the kids!

The Kindergarten classes made these cute little hats and had some special snacks and tons of balloons to celebrate the 100th day of school. It seemed like it was never going to happen due to the crazy snow and school being cancelled for a week.

I know... He looks less then thrilled in these pic's! :)

100th Day

Teddy Bear Sleep Over at Grace Hartman

I love this little tradition that they do in Kindergarten. We went to the school and the kids were dressed in their pj's and brought one of their favorite teddy bears. They had a snack with their bear, wrote a note to their bear with whatever they wanted to ask them, heard a bedtime story from Mrs. Simmons and then placed the bear in their chair. The lights were turned off and Mrs. Simmons turned on some music and we left.

During the night all the teddy bears had a BIG party! The next day when the kids got to school they saw the nice BIG mess that their teddy bears had created during the night. The bears were all over the class room and it was priceless to hear Jake talk about what he "thought" happened. What a neat experience for them.

Cute little teddy bear face cookies!

Bedtime story about bears... of course!
