December 3-7

Gingerbread houses:  Thanks to the generosity of a parent, we have 13 gingerbread houses.  We will make these on Thursday, December 20 at 8:30 am.  We should finish between 10 and 10:30.  We will then take the finished houses to Mission Gardens for the residents to enjoy.  We will need parent volunteers for this project. I would like to have 13 moms or dad (who are fingerprinted and safe environment trained) to help us.  Please email me if you would like to join us. It will be a fun way to earn hours.
