| Little Elf Christmas |
| We began our unit by reading several Christmas stories with elves. We then made life-sized elves. I used the school's digital camera and printed only the children's faces. The children made their elves and added their photo faces. |
| During this unit we also talked about our five senses. (see Five Senses Science Centers) We sang a little elf song that talks about the 5 senses. |
 |
 |
| We concluded our unit with a "Little Elf Tasting Party." The children made elf hats and made and tasted cheese horn snacks, little elf party mix, and mini-bagel wreaths. We ate our snacks on tiny plastic dishes that the children brought from home. |
