Egg Hunt

Before Spring Break we had an egg hunt. First, we decorated a bag to put our eggs in. Then, we went to the upper apparatus area to hunt for eggs. It was easy to find most of the eggs but, some were hidden pretty well. Thank you to the parents who helped hide the eggs. After the hunt we went to the Parent Center to have some ice cream prepared by Mrs. Garcia. She baked some crust, put a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the center, and a small scoop of orange sherbert on the very top. It looked like a broken egg! It was yummy! We also had fruit punch. Thanks Mrs. Garcia! After eating, we divided our findings so that everyone had about the same amount. We also made a rabbit made out of foam. Thanks Miss Tamrazian for showing us how it's done. We had a lot of fun!
