Cole’s teachers have always told me that they like parents to come in and lead an activity. Until now I thought they were just saying that. But recently I took them up on their offer.
I went to Cole’s Pre-K class and did an activity that I did when I was in preschool. We made Christmas trees out of sugar cones.
Here is what you will need: sugar cones, frosting, green food coloring, candies to decorate. I used mini M&M’s (as ornaments), Twizzler Pull & Peel (when peeled, they make great garland), and various fun shaped sprinkles.
I put the cone upside down in the middle of the paper plate and surrounded it with the sprinkles and candies. I put the frosting in little cups (I used applesauce cups).
The kids spread the frosting on with popsicle sticks. Charley got to be in pre-k for a day (she loved it).
Then they got to decorating.
It turned out great. The kids had a blast, and that is the most important thing.

ReplyDeleteMan! Why didn't I read this yesterday. I am having 4 year olds over today and that would have been much better than baking a bunch of cookies!
