Tis the Season to be Jolly at AOW! 🎄

🎄 December Cheer at Our Preschool!

The holiday season is in full swing, and our preschool has been buzzing with joy, imagination, and lots of festive fun! This week, our friends enjoyed activities that sparked creativity, encouraged writing skills, and spread plenty of Christmas cheer. Here’s a peek at what we’ve been up to!

🧦 Christmas Sock Day

Our halls were filled with the silliest, coziest, and most colorful socks you can imagine! From sparkly snowflakes to jingling reindeer, the children loved showing off their festive footwear.

We spent time comparing patterns, counting stripes, and even having a little “sock parade” around the classroom to celebrate everyone’s fun holiday style.

✉️ Writing Letters to Santa

One of the sweetest moments this week was watching the children write their Letters to Santa. With crayons, stickers, and lots of imagination, each child created a special note filled with wishes, drawings, and heartfelt messages.

❤️ Wrapping Up With Holiday Spirit

December is a time of wonder, creativity, and togetherness, and your children have filled our classrooms with all three. Thank you for sharing their excitement with us and helping make these moments so memorable—whether it’s sending them in with their festive socks or encouraging their Santa letters at home.

Wishing all our preschool families a cozy, cheerful, and joy-filled holiday season! 🎅✨
