Last week I had the opportunity to go to Koen's class to help the kids make Christmas cards to distribute to those who live in the neighborhood. His teacher had three styles and the kids were put in three groups, each group making a different style card. You needed to know that little bit of information to understand today's Christmas activity. I had something all set, but Koen said that he had an idea for a Christmas project. Impressed with his enthusiasm and wanting to encourage his creativity I told him we would do his project instead of mine. He told me what he needed: Popsicle sticks, tan paper, brown paper, and blue paper, black paper, scissors, and some glue. He wouldn't tell me what he wanted to make, but as he began to work I realized he was re-creating the card he had made at school! After he finished it, he thought it'd be a nice idea to give it to his teacher with his Christmas gift. Ty, on the other hand, wasn't too excited about making a Christmas card, so he just cut paper.
