Harvest Potlucks

So last year in preschool I did a Thanksgiving program. It went miserably. Definitely not my finest hour directing on stage. Let's leave it at that! So naturally I vowed to never again put 20 preschool kids on the stage at one time. Here is the approach I took this year: Spencer's 3 year old class met for a potluck dinner at my house on Monday the 16th.

The 4 year olds had their potluck dinners this Tuesday the 24th down at the church. For both classes each family brought a pot of soup to share and I provided everything else. At the very end the kids perform 4 songs that we had learned and shared what they were thankful for. The program aspect went a lot smoother than last year. But I felt like it was a lot more work (food prep wise.) So now I have to decide which way I prefer or if it is even worth doing at all!

Emma Lynn got up on the stage with her class and she SANG!!! I was so PROUD of her! She has come such a long way! Way to go girl!!!
