Preschool Part 4: Christmas Time and Letter L

I am on week 4 of my turn with preschool playgroup and I am loving it!  Only two more weeks after today and then I have to turn my 7 little cuties over to the next mom.

Today we learned about the letter L and for a snack we had...

Christmas "Lights"

 These beauties were made when I used my football shaped cookie cutter for the shape and then used one of my favorite things this month, a box of 6 colored sprinkles shakers.  Z thought they would have looked better if I would have used green for the bulb, but once again, I have a TON of red frosting in squirt bottles left over from Halloween!

 We also made these cute "letters" to Santa.  I saw  craft kit for something similar on Oriental Trading, but decided to make up my own template.  I bought some felt and pieced them together with the preschoolers.  We put a loop of ribbon on the top so that they can hang on the tree, or on a door knob, which is what Buddy did with his.

 And then we attached a ribbon on the back so that we could tie on a letter to Santa!
