Day 22: Cookies
I had to save this for today because I didn't make cookies until today. This is one of my favorite things to do for Christmas. I love making the dough and rolling it and cutting the shapes out, then decorating them with the kids. Oh and I used blue because I somehow ran out of yellow food coloring and I needed .... wanted a third color.
Day 23: Sparkle
My son made this at school because they studied all the different celebrations that go on in December and how other countries celebrate. So they made a sparkly Star of David. This was also the first year we got to celebrate a night of Hanukkah with some friends of ours who are Jewish. It was so nice for the kids to get to experience a true celebration with the lighting of the Menorah and traditional Hebrew Prayer, Latkes, and jelly doughnuts.
