Christmas Party

The children will be having a gift exchange for our Christmas party.  The boys can purchase a $5-7 boy gift and the girls can purchase a $5-7 girl gift.  On the gift tags, please just write to – a girl or a boy, and from – their name.  Please wrap the presents and the children can bring them in anytime the week of 16th. 

The party is on Thursday, morning the 19th, at 9:45-11:05.  It is a half day and the children will be dismissed at 11:35 am.  If you need assistance with getting a gift for the gift exchange, please let me know in the next few days so I can get my elves on it.  Listed is the Christmas Party snacks lists, we have 23.

We will be decorating cookies for Santa during our Christmas party.  Which means I’m in need of some donations, please message me if you are willing to purchase one of the following items.

·      Premade circle sugar cookies (about 30)
·      Rice crispy treats (box of 25 or homemade cut into triangles)
·      Nutter Butters (2 packages)
·      Sugar Cones (enough for 25)
·      1 bag on small pretzels
·      1 bag of Christmas M & M’s
·      Jars of frosting (white, red, & green)
·      Christmas decorating candies or sprinkles


Again, if anything is a problem please let me know in advances so I can make other arrangements.  Thank you very much!  If you are interested in volunteering for our party please just shoot me a text or email.
