Isabella's class has been reading "Little House in the Big Woods", and per tradition her class held their annual "Little House Luncheon"!
In keeping with the theme, each student also participated in aunique Secret Santa Gift Exchange. What made it so special, was that the gift had to be homemade and in keeping with something you would give or receive in "Little House" times. Isabella chose to make this baby doll quilt for her friend Kayliegh!
They dined from pie tins filled with Swedish meatballs, mashed potatoes, slaw, and cornbread, and drank apple cider from glass jars.
They even made fresh homemade butter and apple sauce for the feast!
No meal is complete with out dessert! And this meal was no exception with fresh fruit and cream and an assortment of sugar and gingerbread cookies!
With full tummies they came together for stories and a rousing sing-a-long!
We are so grateful for wonderful teachers who make learning come alive! This was a really special activity, and it's one I know Isabella will never forget.
Now I'm anxious to make homemade butter myself...
