Julien's Candle Day!

On Thursday before the break, we celebrated Julien's Candle Day!  With help from his mom and dad Julien talked to the class about his old and important stuffed cat (including how he got his name), the beautiful wooden sword his dad made for him, the ongoing flying car project he's working on at home and his hobby of collecting found object treasures.  Next we went on a nature walk to collect found treasures of our own and came back to make nature collages with the items as well as enjoy a snack of blackberries- his favorite. A great time was had by all.  I look forward to more Candle Days this spring when we can highlight the uniqueness of each child.
