Class activities for Thursday, February 14
Our Feb Factor Valentine’s party was so good, it was scary, literally! We passed out our cards and ate sloppy joes, crackers, fruit and veggies.
Feb Factor games included sticking conversation hearts, slurping strawberry banana pudding, muching cranberry jelly, passing love notes, tossing bouncy balls and sticking conversation hearts! Here are some pics and videos!
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!
