Oliver's Christmas party

I was asked if I would be in charge of Oliver's preschool Christmas party. Um...that is very overwhelming for me. I don't think I am someone with very good ideas when it comes to this kind of thing...but after a little research and the help of some other mom's it turned out so cute. First I had the kids make reindeer food. They decorated ziplock bags with stickers and then filled them with oats and glitter. I found a really cute poem online to go along with it. We read stories and then I had brought a christmas bingo game that cali had found. The website we got it off of was awesome...you said how many squares you wanted and what theme and they randomly generated however many cards you needed.
I pasted them on red poster board and got pepermint m&m's for the markers. It turned out really cute. Really if you ever have to do a game for a kids party this website is awesome. I was so relieved that Cali found this because I was going to have to draw the pictures myself. (she found the site at 10 pm the night before the party...yeah I am a procrastinator). Anyways we had a couple of other activities. I love any chance I get to go help in Oli's class. The kids are all so cute...and they love me...which helps.

Story time.

They also played musical pictures and when the music stoped you got prizes depending on what picture you were on.

At the end of the party one of the mom's had a bag of oranges and the kids got one after they said their favorite thing about Christmas. Every kid was saying "PRESENTS" and things like that and when it was Oliver's turn he said "Celebrating the Holiday's" (In a real quiet shy voice). I was so proud...even though I know he probably wanted to say PRESENTS it made my heart so happy to hear his answer. Good job Oli.
