Happy New Year of the Mouse

The Pre-Kindergarten children came back to class happily and celebrated the New Year and their new unit "Animals and Food" by having a tea party.

They talked about the items necessary for such a party and started to set the table with cups, plates, and cakes. After further discussion, more items were added. Everyone helped and had some ideas and in the end the children enjoyed their party with a mouse themed cookie.

To make an additional connection of the new subject in the world around them,  the class then went on an excursion to the Fashion Museum to see a wonderful exhibition about afternoon tea settings. The children were quite fascinated by the beautiful items and had many comments and questions.

What a great start into the New Year of the inquisitive Mouse ! Happy 2020, everyone !
