Santa's Secret Message

Last week, we went to a tree lighting celebration. They served yummy cookies and cocoa while the elementary kids sang carols. We waited for Santa, the honored guest, to arrive and light the tree.

Afterwards, all the children got up close and personal with Santa. I'm glad we saved those red hats for the move. Now the three of them match.

 



On December 6, we celebrated St. Nicholas Day learning about the history of Santa. The children watched the old classic Santa Claus is Coming to Town. They wrote letters to Santa before bed and put their shoes outside their bedroom door with their letters. That evening he came to pick-up the letters, drop some candies in their shoes and leave a secret message too.

 

Santa is very thoughtful!

Thanks to A Thrifty Mom for this great idea!
