Welcome back, we hope everyone had a good weekend.
We read the story When Mindy Saved Hanukkah by Eric A. Kimmel about a girl named Mindy saving Hanukkah by going on a mission to get a candle for her family to celebrate the holiday. The children were excited to make their own paper menorah, we have posted them on our closet doors.
This afternoon Sydney’s mommy joined us to help us light our menorah and say the blessing for this seventh night of Hanukkah. The children also enjoyed a yummy Menorah snack made out of bananas and pretzel sticks that Sydney and her mom shared with the class, and were excited to take home a dreidel and some chocolate gelt.
