Today we learned about Holidays! We first asked the kids what holidays they knew and if they knew how these holidays began. They talked about several holidays like Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali, and Thanksgiving but talked a little about their origins. The first holiday we talked about was Christmas! We talked about how it started and some fun facts about the holiday. The kids were so fascinated to hear that Jingle Bells was a song originally written for Thanksgiving! Another holiday we talked about was Halloween! We learned that in Belville, Missouri it is illegal for children ages 13 and over to ask for candy! To wrap up our session, we took a Buzzfeed quiz on which holiday best matched our personality.
Here are the links we used:
