What a great Halloween we had this year!! This was the first year Anaïs truly "got" Halloween and really enjoyed it.
First, the girls celebrated Halloween at school with a parade and then the whole school gathered in the gym for some dancing.
Here is Anaïs and her school principal, the bee keeper and the bee.
The parade was fun for the kids. What I love about our school is that it is small enough to have the whole school gather (grades preschool through 9th grade) and build a small community where everyone knows and supports each other.
Third graders, including Sam, giving high fives to the pre-K (Anaïs):
Then while Sam went back to her classroom to resume regular 3rd grade day, Anaïs' classroom had a party.
They got to do fun activity like touching slimy things, doing crafts, decorating and eating bagels and reading a Halloween story.
Then after school, we went to some friends' house to go trick or treating.
Sam and her friend Anna really enjoyed passing out candy to trick or treaters, maybe even more so than trick or treating.
After all that work...time to eat their candy :)
