Though the weather did not cooperate this morning (it was raining), there was a back-up plan. The snow was trucked in, the downhill slide was constructed, and a huge awning covered it all!
The students got to play in the snow, slide down a little hill in a saucer, eat Panda Express, decorate and eat cupcakes, race Hot Wheels cars, dress up like Barbie, pose for pictures with various backdrops, and on and on!
I wonder how many packages of polaroid film they went through! And all of the students received a toy from Mattel. The whole school had a great time. One of the highlights was the Santa-led Conga Line!!
Back to business as usual tomorrow... ;)
Thanks to all the Mattel employees who came to the school to hang out with the students! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, MATTEL!
This is such a cute idea. We live in Texas and it hardly ever snows. When my own children were in Montessori school, they had a similar day with a huge ice mountain in July. They had the best time. Kudos to Mattel!!
