Knights, Dragons, Fairies, and Princesses

This week was full of FIRE, FUN, and FANTASY!
The medieval world came to life as we made Dragon Apples, Princess cakes, lemonade, and enjoyed a feast fit for a king.

This week was amazing! We were able to use our imaginations and send ourselves into the exciting times and lands of fantasy. We spent a day making Dragon Apples, running a princess relay race, rappelling off a castle, and constructing fairy houses. The next day We read all about princesses while we ate a light snack, princess cakes. We jousted in medieval times as knights, made kites, and decorated our fairy houses. The following day we sipped on sweet lemonade as we listened to the flutes of the fairies, we built castles with sugar cubes, made our own prince/princess crowns, and played an exciting dragon game. The last day was fantastic. We learned to waltz like prince/princesses, played a few rounds of sophisticated games, and prepared a feast for our entire kingdom to enjoy. We all feasted until our bellies were stuffed like a king! This week was packed with FUN, FIRE, and FANTASY!
