Since I am charge of the parties in Scout’s school, I knew I had to get on it last night.
Thank goodness I am a good planner with a short timeline, because this party came during a ridiculously busy time in my life.
So last night, I ran out to get supplies for each kid to make a “snowman shooter”.
When I got into the class, I told all of the kids to sing “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.”
As they finished, I asked them about the part in the song that spoke of “Reindeer Games”, and asked if they knew what those games were.
They didn’t, so then I explained that I Googled “Reindeer Games”, and that we were all going to play them in a modified fashion.
Modified….meaning we had to use ping pong balls instead of snowballs so that they didn’t melt all over the classroom.
The kids loved it!
“Sink the Snowball” was a favorite.
And after 45 minutes of games, the other room mom had brought in snacks for the kids to eat.
How lucky was I, when everything was “Reindeer” themed!
She must have read my mind, because I certainly had no idea of what we were going to do at the party three days before when she asked what the festivities would entail.
I think she was dumbfounded when my response was, “The party….well, I won’t know what we are doing until the night before. Don’t worry…it will be good. By the way…how many people are in the class?”
But possibly even more dumbfounded when the party was as good as it gets.
