Halloween week

This week we celebrated Halloween

We baked lots of treats for the fika and we made some halloween decorations to hang up in the school. On Friday morning we had our trick or treating, most of the children were dressed up some cute and some scary that was nice to see. We started to knock on the doors asking for trick or treat, and we got lots of treats. We were also so happy to give away treats to the other groups.

In the afternoon our parents were invited to our spooky halloween fika, it turned out great and a few of the parents were dressed up too.

Ducklings Halloween Celebration

During the Halloween week we did a lot of activities to celebrate this Festival. We first introduced to the chlildren what is Haloween and what do people do during Halloween and we watched some halloween videos about trick or treat. The children and teachers were all dressed up and we went around the preschool to do trick or treat. The children really enjoyed the activity and they got majskrokar in the candy bag to eat as treat. Later on in the afternoon we had the Halloween fika together with the parents and the children got to taste the bakeries from each group and the parents. We had a great party celebrating Halloween!

   Halloween

This week we prepared for halloween, we made lots of bakery goods and decoration to hang all over the preschool. Today we went trick or treating, most of us dressed up but all of us went knocking on doors. We knocked and said “trick or treat”? And we got lots of nice treats in our goodie bag. We then later went back to our room and ate the goodies, while other groups came in and knock on our door, and said “trick or treat” We said treat and gave them glowing bracelets. All the penguin children got one bracelet each to put in their bags.

We later that day celebrated halloween with a fika with parents and friends, we served all our baked treats and showed them the halloween video of the day.
