On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...three french hens. We are on our third day of our Christmas unit and we learned that the three french hens represented the three gifts of the wise men. Our unit study of the Twelve Days of Christmas is using this book by Helen Haidle.
Kaleb has surprised me during this unit. He is really taking his time with his coloring, trying to make it look nice. It helps that Grandma sent some new markers to J for her birthday and she is sharing.
Kaleb painted his french hen with water colors.
J is working on her coloring sheets. I use the time they are coloring to read from our many chapter books.
J made a wise men craft that I found from First Palette (link below). We will hang this in our window.
Kaleb's finished items for day 3 - small ornament pictures to represent the gifts of the wise men which will go in the pocket, his coloring sheet, the bag label, and his french hen ornament. When this study is completed, the ornaments will fit nicely into the bag book pockets as well.
J's finished items - her mini books for her lap book, the wise men gift ornaments from Church House Collection (link below), coloring sheet, and her french hen ornament from Down East Thunder Farm (link below).
On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me....day three down, only nine more to go. The ornaments are turning out super cute. These will be treasured :) Have an awesome day.
