Primary Celebrations
August 11, 2011
Birthday celebrations at Plum Tree are amazing! We learn about our planet’s elliptical orbit around the sun, and the 12 months of the year. For each year the child walks around our floor ellipse holding the globe. We light a candle to represent the sun.
Wednesday, we celebrated Taylor’s 4th birthday. Taylor brought Popsicles for everyone. Today, we celebrated Anna’s 3rd birthday. Anna brought Popsicles too! We love Popsicles!
Happy birthday Taylor and Anna!
