I showed a Santa Book. We again pulled out the world map and again traveled and reviewed each country we visited before and this time showed what Santa looks like in different countries. We also learned that children in other countries call Santa Claus by different names, such as Pierre Noel, Father Christmas, St. Nick etc.
No matter what his name, we all agreed that Santa was someone special. Someone who loved children. Someone who brought presents to good girls and boys and someone who loved to have cookies left for him to eat.
Each child received their own sugar cookie dough to roll out, cut, and bake. With sequence cards we followed the directions on how to make and decorate sugar cookies. During the baking we practiced for our up coming Christmas program. Afterwards, we got quite messy by frosting, and decorating our cookies. After eating a cookie or two, Miss Janalynn wrapped up our remainder cookies, so we could take them home to give to Santa, when he came to visit.
