Viscaya Gardens

 

Hello,

The holidays are upon us here at Viscaya Gardens and we have been quite busy these last few months.  Not only have the children been busy completing and turning in their homework on time, we have made time to stimulate their artistic side as well.  October was a great start to the fall, we had a Halloween pizza party and the children made lot's of creative crafts, dressed up and made skeleton cookies along with playing games like loteria, monopoly and other fun board games.  Come November we all got into the Thanksgiving spirit and made plenty of turkey and pilgrim fun crafts along with a coloring competition.  Now that December is upon us we are planning a Christmas party to kick off the Christmas spirit fun!  It's always a joy seeing the children this time of year as their eyes light up waiting for Christmas Day to arrive! Happy Holidays!

Lincoln Plaza


Hello Coordinators,

Since the Holidays are here, we here at Lincoln Plaza are getting into the spirit of the season by decorating our computer lab room with Christmas decorations.  This year, for our Christmas decorations, we have decided to decorate/paint nutcrackers.  Since we have done Santa's, Christmas Trees, Gingerbread men in the past, we decided to step it up.  I have assigned this activity in pairs and according to family size.  The families are so supportive and encourage their children to participate in all of our arts and crafts activities.  Like all my activities I make sure to cater the activity to the appropriate age group.  The younger children will be making their own nutcrackers out of clothes pins.  When I told them about the idea many of them asked if they would be able to decorate their nutcrackers with beards, swords and with gold trim.  I informed them that it's up to them to decorate their nutcrackers (personalize it to your hearts content).  I love this time of year simply because the children make me smile and get super excited when I let them know about the fun we will all be having with our arts and crafts activities during the Holidays.  Before I forget, we are done decorating our picture frames and jewelry boxes for our parents.  These are gifts we have decided to make so that each child can give to their parents on Christmas day. On a another fun note, we are building actual gingerbread houses from scratch this year.  The children are super, super excited and I can't wait to see their finished products, they are so talented!  Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas  Wishing everyone a Happy and Prosperous New Year!!!

Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly so they lit a fire in the craft.
Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you cannot have your kayak and heat it too.  Bahahahahaha!!!

Have a Great Day!!!
