October: Elizabeth's Harvest Party

I am the room mom in Elizabeth's class this year. This requires me to be in charge of each of Lizzy's school parties. At Lizzy's party we had a dance contest where the children had to dance until the music stopped. I had downloaded a bunch of halloween music which was just perfect!


We also made some very creative bagel snacks that were made to look like pumpkins! Jordan Sollee is Lizzy's friend and in her primary. She made a great pumpkin!


Lizzy's looked good too. She tried to put as many snacks on there as possible.


We also had the kids look at some objects on a cookie tray for 30 seconds and then we took the tray away. The children had to guess what objects were on the tray.



The kids loved our candy corn relay race. We did boys against girls.


The kids had to carry candy corn on a spoon over to a pumpkin bucket. When time was up the bucket with the most corn won!


I was 20 weeks pregnant and still fitting my regular jeans. And of course, Ethan was an honorary 2nd grader.


Lastly we made 3-D Halloween cards. The kids were pretty creative and loved this art project.


Overall it was a fantastic party that the kids really seemed to enjoy. I also ended up having some great additional parent support so it couldn't have been any more perfect!
