[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DCPS had an activity like this for the PK kids a couple years ago. It is a gentrifying school so there is some thinking by some of the teachers that they have to provide these types of experiences at school because some kids don't get them at home. I get that it feels kind of weird because of the association with Easter. But I think its fun for the kids which is the main benefit. When you start stripping away all the fun stuff like this at school it starts to feel pretty joyless. OP you need to use this as a teachable moment. My kid was sad to learn about Hanukah at school and wanted to know why she wasn't getting presents for 8 nights. [/quote] Which is really why schools should not be celebrating holidays (Hanukah presents for eight nights, what?) with young kids - teach about religions when kids are capable of reading and nuanced discussions - MS/HS.
