And now we are going to have Mother's Day. Unfortunately it will be on a Sunday but this can in no way stop the teachers and the little children to plan something for its celebration.
Our group, the second smallest in the school is learning the "Mama ach ich hab dich lieb..." which is a mother's song and we keep telling the children that they have to sing this song for their Mama on Sunday. The children colored construction paper which we folded and made into a small gift box on which the children stuck stars and flowers. Now today we and the children together rolled out cookie dough, cut heart shaped cookies out of it, spread milk on them, stuck colorful sugar pieces on them and then Cl baked them - all right in front of the children. We plan to keep these children made cookies into that gift box which the children will give to their mother as gift.
The children loved rolling out the dough and turned real creative after 15 minutes. Ll couldn't roll hers properly so she altogether decided to make snake cookies instead of the heart shaped ones. And then all the children discovered making snake cookies was more interesting. Little Mx who is a real sugar lover in our class instead of spreading the colorful sugar pieces on the cookie ate all of it and then kept digging in his spare dough snake cookie to pull out those tiny colorful pieces and didn't hesitate to eat even the raw dough if that meant a little sugar in it. Ot too thought the dough ball was something nice to eat and popped the whole ball into his mouth and we had to retrieve it quickly much to his displeasure.
Finally when we ended this activity the whole kitchen floor as well as the huge kitchen table was covered with sticky cookie dough and tonnes of colored sugar pieces all over....
The cookies were ready in less than 20 minutes. Tomorrow we shall pack them into the gift boxes and keep them into the children's baskets for their mothers.
Doesn't it sound tremendously exciting and so prettily cute?
H's group too has made chocolate cookies and muffins. I saw Mym packing them and when she saw me she smiled. "Bitte augen zu machen. Es ist geheim nur fur mama."
