Family Feast

Another fun activity at Cord's preschool. Today was the "family feast" in celebration of Thanksgiving. The teacher told us that the research has shown that although we enjoy seeing the kids dressed up as Pilgrims and Indians singing a fun Thanksgiving song, the idea is so abstract that the kids still don't understand it. What they do understand is that the holiday is about family and friends getting together for a big feast and expressing thanks. So the kids sang a cute little song about eating yummy food. Cord sang loud and proud and when he was walking up to hand in his poster he gave a very dramatic bow. He's hilarious. Then we ate a thanksgiving dinner (at 10:30 in the afternoon). It's just fun to have something to do with Cord and to meet his preschool friends.
