We hopped on the Magic Holiday Bus and
traveled to Holland. Here are Mrs. Brockhaus' shoes for the trip. |

We learned that children in Holland put
their shoes out on their porch on Sinter Klaas Day (December 6th). If
the children have been good, they get candy and treats. If they have
been naughty, they get coal and rocks. Here's a sample of our art
project. As you can see, this shoe is full of candy and treats! |

Here's our note to Sinter Klaas!
Many of us put our shoes out, and he even came to Nebraska! |

...And the stockings are hung by the
chimney with care...Check out all of that sewing and the beautiful colors. |

When we traveled to Mexico, we read
The Legend of the Poinsettia... |

...and made poinsettias. |

On our second day in Mexico, we made a
classroom piņata to be opened at our holiday party. It was a little
messy, but fun! |

We also traveled to Israel and learned
about the celebration of Hanukah. Here's a menorah that we colored
while practicing reading our color words. |

We made stars to decorate our room for
Hanukah. |

...and we learned how to play Dreidel
while we were in Israel. |
