This year I helped out at my daughter's school. I helped plan the Fall Party. It was a lot of fun, and everything went well. No one cried. No one complained. So I call that a success!
Here are some things I worked on:
Turkey bowling!***
28 owls!!!! I had anxiety I would be short or somehow miscount and have an unhappy kiddo, but it worked out. I apparently can count! There were 14 girls and 14 boys. They all seemed happy with them and liked the secret pocket!***
The poem was glued to the back of the paper. And it could be sung to the "Farmer and the Dell" melody. The kids seemed to like this one too. I think singing and glue made them like it.***
Also, we played turkey bingo! The kids had to get 5 feathers in a row. It seemed to be okay.I have more to share, but I need to get pics. My brother in law drew an awesome turkey for the kids to color, and we made wreaths. Also, there was a ping pong toss. And even another game that required the kids to use their memory to remember what was missing!
WHEW! I am glad it is over, and I am so happy I was able to be part of it! I do feel relief now that it is over! I at least know it was a success and the kids had fun.
