Christmas in the day home!

 Christmas in the day home!! Sorry, you will just have to turn your head or your computer from some pictures, i can not seem to rotate them!
so of course, we had snow in the water table. many many times!!
 we had styrofoam chips in the water table when it did not seem as though there would be snow!
 we decorated sugar cookies, baked christmas cookies, and so on!
 the books!
 We did some sewing, the styrofoam chips were sewn on to string to decorate our christmas tree.

 ta-da!
 we decorated orniments, painted orniments, glued, cut, colored, hung!

 this is the birthday cake i made for blake and kaylas birthday party! i forgot about the cake so sadly it was not eaten at the party. spiderman and a princess are doing snow angels and strawberry shortcake and a ninja turtle are on the tobaggan hill. Blake loved the cake! i was very happy with his reaction as i really did not want to bake and decorate 2 cakes since i had to bake and decorate cupcakes for his school and bake 6 gingerbread houses for the party! one cake seeemed like enough to me!
 tree decorating craft.
 we used cookie cutters and news print to make our own wrapping paper.  The kids also made a picture frame with a picture of themselves in it, wrapped it in their very own hand made wrapping paper and took it home for parents.
 Styrofoam balls and paper bags made up a snow ball toss game.  This was a big hit!
 Santa masks! i did get this idea from pinterest.  they were super cute!
 The day home children also helped decorate the christmas tree that Blake picked out!  We danced to christmas music, a lot! a favorite song was Santa baby!
we sang jingle bells, with all kindas of bells ringing!  We decorated windows with removable stickers....hmm...im sure there was more, but as it is now the middle of january i just cant remember!
 Candy cane hop.
and we decorated our own christmas hats.
