Lunch Bunch begins with a short meeting...We talk about our day, sometimes we read a book and we also use that time to plan curriculum with the children. Today I told them that the Tuesday Lunch Bunchers had a great time making costumes and then put on a Purim Play. I asked them if they liked that idea? Well, what do you think their response was? That is right...YES!!!!!
They could not wait to get started! First they decided who they wanted to be, then they made a crown or a triangular hat. The excitement/energy in the room was high! After Leo and Ryan made their costume they asked ,"Where is the castle/palace?" I suggested we build one on the stage. They liked that idea a lot. I then asked the children, "What could we make the castle/palace with?" A few of the children said, "The wooden blocks!" So, that is what they did and what a castle it was!
The Unicorn and Sunshine children joined us and helped set up the chairs around the stage. After a few announcements the show started. I was the narrator and Mordechai, Lilly K was Queen Vashti, Ryan was Haman, Eli S and Sarah were Queen Esther, Avram, Jake, Max and Leo were King Ahashverus. The show was really something to see and at the end of the performance, everyone took a bow! Purim is such a fun holiday!
