With classes closed this week, we decided to take some field trips. The Crocker Art Museum just opened a new kid-friendly exhibit which they enjoyed. We walked around Old Sacramento, visiting the school and the train museum as usual. We took a couple tours of the trains before playing with the train tables and the model trains. We checked out some new books from the library, but there was no storytime this week. We had a playdate at Rockin Jump and Imagine That, where we had great fun bouncing followed by some painting, experimenting with air, and building marble runs. Our final "field trip" was to grandparents for Thanksgiving, where Genevieve helped make cookies.
When we weren't on the go, we began getting ready for Christmas. Genevieve decorated a gingerbread house. Tobias and Genevieve began to make Christmas presents for family. We read some books about Thanksgiving, like a Daniel Tiger book about Thanks, Bear Give Thanks, and non-fiction about harvest festivals around the world. We made a turkey with thankful feathers, and Genevieve drew a family picture with a young turkey for Grandma and Grandpa.
