Jameson’s Easter Party

Jameson’s Easter Party

James had an awesome preschool teacher (who just so happens to be a fabulous friend of mine.)  James is an apprehensive kid to say the least but Ms. Jessica has charmed him.  He loves her and loves going to school at her house.  He has learned so much and has been able to do all sorts of fun things.  Jess put on a really fun Easter party for the class and I volunteered to go help out.   We set up these darling IKEA tables she has at the greenbelt across the street from her house and the kids got to dye eggs.  She had them put there egg in and then count to 25 as a group and then remove them and rotate to the the right and then drop there egg in again and count again.  It was a great and educational way to do Easter eggs.  James dyed his hands a lovely brown for about 2 days.  Next they had a spoon and egg race.  All the kids did really well keeping there eggs on there wooden spoons and making it to the finish line.  Finally she had an egg hunt.  First the kids just got to run and find Easter eggs hidden all over.  Then we gathered the kids together and did it a second time only this time we had written letters on the eggs and the kids had to find the eggs that would spell out there names.  It was awesome!  The kids loved it and it kept the egg hunt going for longer than the usual 5 minutes.  Isn’t that the best idea!  I’m going to do it every year for sure.
