The Day to Sing!



Every year for the last 8 years we have gone to the Nursing home located near our town with the homeschool group and sang Christmas Carols. This year I was worried about it because we have one family that "carries" us and they were unable to make it. Our backup family was there and those children did a great job but overall all our kids did wonderful! Singing at the Nursing home is a wonderful experience for the kids and it is not just a matter of showing up. Prior to going we make a banner, poster or in the case this year a Christmas tree out of old Christmas cards that are donated to me! The kids always cut out their hands and we get pretty creative with them. One year (my favorite year) we made two wreaths. This years Christmas tree came out great and they had it hanging before we left that day!
