The Greatest Gift

Our poinsettia project took many days to complete. Proving its worth as a gift of love.
Yes! We are in kindergarten! Sometime we still get the chance to finger paint.
(Just make sure to wash in cold water and check clothing before drying...)

And we clean up after ourselves.




Each festival of light we studied focused on good triumphing over evil. In all five celebrations gifts are given to reflect gratitude and commentate a miraculous occasion. The legend of the poinsettia comes from Santa Ana. When a poor boy had nothing to give he was ashamed and cried. However, the ground below him burst with poinsettia the following Christmas morning. This little boy gave the greatest of all gifts, he gave the gift of love.
