Officially Employed

Before someone tries to accuse me of breaking some sort of child labor law, let me quickly clarify what I mean by "employed."


We read the book How Santa Got his Job and discussed how Santa Claus acquired all the skills that have made him the great success he is today.  We all agreed that Santa had a dream job and he would be the perfect person to work for - and what do you know?  I found a listing in the Help Wanted Ads  from Santa.  He was in need of more elves this season.  With much excitement in the room, we looked over Santa's elf application.  We carefully filled in all of the required information and crossed our fingers that we would all get the job!


And just as I suspected, Santa hired our entire class!  But in order to do our jobs efficiently, it was mandatory that we look the part.  So we did just that - we "elfed" ourselves.







And now that it's officially December, we begin the countdown to Christmas!  What an exciting time of year! Santa's beard should be almost full by the time we head off for Christmas break.
