Visiting EZ's Preschool

We love EZ's new preschool and one of the best parts is that 3 times a year I get to go in and be a helper for the teacher. I went on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and got to help out with their Pow Wow. They started the day with a food drive. All of the kids got to bring some canned goods to fill a grocery cart for a local charity. Then they gathered wearing the headbands they had made ahead of time and had a pow wow where they shared friendship trail mix and built a huge totem pole out of boxes decorated by each of the classes. Here is EZ in his sweet headband. He chose the Indian name "Good Roaring TRex." I think it represents EZ perfectly. He is starting to really get into dinosaurs, but he is still kind of a chicken so he wants them to be nice and not roar too loud.
EZ also got to celebrate his half birthday, since they get out of school before his actual birthday. He got wear the awesome birthday crown, but the best part was this little book the class had made for him. Each of his classmates drew a picture for him and dictated to the teacher why EZ is special. The kids of course said the cutest things, like EZ is special because he has a super hero lunch box.


It was really fun to get to watch EZ interact with his teacher and the other kids. He has grown so much this year socially and I just love watching him having a great time with his friends.
