In the lead up to Christmas its great fun helping to prepare the little ones for the exciting things they will experience. I saw this idea on a Pinterest site and adapted it so the little ones could help to make the tree and then stick baubles and stars on it. They loved counting them and talking about the colours. It was a great opportunity for learning about taking turns too and then of course lots of celebrating their work afterwards by showing it off to parents and the big children after school too.
