Diwali, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and Christmas are all discussed during the month of December in our classroom. For each holiday, there will be a short video assisting in the explanation of the celebration. While no participation in right/wrong discussion regarding these holidays will happen; we want each parent to be aware of the videos being shared.
While these celebrations are important and create the morals and standards that some of our families build their lives around, the conversations regarding a child's view will never begin with a staff's inquiry or be challenged by individuals within our classroom setting. It is joyous to hear your children share their thoughts with others, of all topics, as these conversations are building friendships and trust.
