| Sharing treats |
Trystan: Generosity is helping friends when they are stuck.
Enxin: It is helping people when they are hurt.
Lysander: Sharing!
Tai: Hugging.
Aiden: Generosity is really good.
We told the children that we are going to hold a party where everyone is celebrating the new year and Orin suggested: "We can have a generosity party". What a great idea! I asked the children what we should do to make it a generosity party. The children said they could bring something to share with everyone and started to think about what to bring from home.

The children could not wait for the party! Even the children who did not attend the discussion day wanted to share something from their lunch kits. Everyone enjoyed the treats (thank you parents!) and dancing to the music(shared by the teachers). After, the children gathered together for a story The Gift of Nothing. It is about Mooch (a cat) pondering what gift to give Earl (a dog) when Earl has everything. The answer, of course, is nothing. Inspired by the story, the children wrapped empty boxes with colourful wrapping papers and played with them in our block area.
