Class activities for Thursday, February 11
Our Feb Factor Valentine’s party was so good, it was scary, literally! We decorated Valentine’s bags, passed out our cards and ate sloppy joes, crackers, fruit and veggies.
Feb Factor games included sticking conversation hearts, slurping gummy hearts, passing love notes, and carrying marshmallow Peeps!Thanks to everyone who donated food and supplies; we had more than enough! A big thanks to all the family members that helped with serving food, cleanup and games!
