This afternoon we had our first Christmas party with our Keepers' group and the Contenders, too. Besides getting to play outside some (it was in the mid-70's today!), here are the fun things we did as a group with 15 kids.
- read the Christmas story from the Bible
- sang Christmas carols while I played the piano (one of the girls also played a song)
- decorated sugar cookies
- had snacks (summer sausage, cheese, crackers, chips, and lots of sweets!)
- played a game of making the kids into snowmen with toilet paper & scarves & mittens, etc
- made Christmas trees out of pine cones which were spray painted and decorated with glitter
- decorated small gingerbread houses (made of graham crackers)
It was a wonderful time and we are really enjoying our new friendships this year.
