An Old-Fashioned Christmas!


We went to the Highwood Museum. Years ago, people hung candles on the Christmas tree.  They had to be careful because they tried not to burn themselves or the tree!  In the old days, they hung socks and Santa would put an orange in the toe, if you were lucky!  We made a craft candy cane out of paper and crayons. The Highwood Museum has an old journal from a girl from the 1880s.

We played at the museum in the play area.  We sang Jingle Bells with bells and we read the book A Porcupine in a Pine Tree.
