Purim Party


Today was a very special day in Sydney's classroom.  Her class celebrated Purim together by having a Purim party.


All of the kids were meant to dress up today in costume.  Sydney decided she wanted to be a butterfly princess. 


In keeping with the royal theme that the costumes are meant to have around Purim, I decided to make her a crown late last night and surprise her with it this morning.  She loved it, especially the "jewels" that I had hot glue gunned all around it!


When we got to school we found the classroom had been decorated and both of her teachers were dressed up as princesses as well, it was fantastic!


The kids enjoyed going on a Purim parade, having a royal feast together and giving out mishloach manot baskets to the children in the other preschool classrooms and daycare.


They even had a special magic show put on by Leo's Bubbie, it was amazing!


Each of the children made their own basket earlier in the week and got to take it home today filled with all sorts of goodies including the hamantashen that they had made in class earlier this week.


What a fun day of celebration it was!
