Waiting for St. Nick
December is so full of beautiful opportunities to learn the lives of the saints and we began with a favorite today! The munchkins had such fun setting out their shoes, making St. Nicholas ornaments and creating bishop miter hats!
The shoes went out into our tiny hallway! What fun to have our shoes off in school!
All lined up and waiting...
for the treasures that St. Nick left!
The munchkins couldn't wait to make our St. Nicholas ornaments. These got to go right home today and so they could be put right onto everyone's Christmas trees! (If they're up, that is!)
Then we had tons of fun making our St. Nicholas miter hats!
Of course, wearing them was even more fun!
We ended our day with a nice coloring page of this special saint. When I asked the munchkins who St. Nicholas reminded them of, I expected to hear them all say Santa Claus. Instead, the consensus was that he looked like St. Patrick! Isn't that refreshingly beautiful!
Happy Feast of St. Nicholas!
St. Nicholas, pray for us!
Until next time...
Giggles,
Mrs. D.
