Last week we spent time learning about and celebrating Halloween. The children always enjoy this time of year. We read lots of really silly Halloween stories and had a great time making pictures of what we wanted to dress up as for Halloween. I loved hearing all of their great ideas!
On Friday, it was favorite book character day at our school. The children were able to bring in one dollar to wear a costume of their favorite book character. I loved getting to see their ideas. We had two Ironmans (iron men!?), a lion, a scarecrow, Snow White, Dora The Explorer, and a train engineer!

Friday morning we made a special snack! Monster Mash! I told the children the story of the witch that showed up at my house with this wonderful recipe and then we added all of the yummy ingredients!
Here is the recipe in case you want to make some at home!
Witches Teeth (Candy Corn)
