Christmas Around the World

We spent the last few days before Christmas learning about how different countries celebrated Christmas!!

First we made passports and suitcases, so we could "travel" to each place!

 

We made reindeer snacks!

 

 

We made dreidels!

 

We also made windmill ornaments!

 

The kids really enjoyed learning about how the different countries celebrated Christmas!!
