Mother's Day Tea (4 year old class)

With all the wonderful moms in mind, lots of planning and creativity went into organizing our Mother's Day Tea.

In advance of the Tea, the children made cereal cookies, designed personal plates and cards as gifts, and practiced for a special Play in honour of all the mothers.

The children poured, scooped, measured, and stirred, and then helped put the cookies on the baking trays.

 



The children made drawings with ceramic pens on plates, and also made fingerprint cards, as a gift for their moms.


The morning of the Tea, the children helped make cucumber and cheese sandwiches, prepare fruit cups and set the tables.

When the moms arrived at 11:00am, they were entertained by the children's Play called Bunny's Drawing. Christy did a wonderful job playing the lead role as Bunny.

  
 
    
 
   
 
   
 
  
 
 
The story tells of a bunny who draws a self portrait for her mom, but on the way home many different animals suggest changes to the portrait, and bunny obliges. The end drawing is a far cry from the original, and now includes stripes like a zebra, a mane like a lion, a trunk like an elephant.......


 
After the Play, the children brought their gifts over to their moms to open.

 
 
 
 

The children then served their moms the Mother's Day tea they had prepared, along with water with lemon and tea.



It was an enjoyable morning from start to finish, and the children appreciated and took pleasure in having the opportunity to be extra special to their wonderful moms this day.


Happy Mother's Day!
