December 12 - The Jolly Christmas Postman

After reading The Jolly Christmas Postman, students decorated candy ornaments and holiday cards using a variety of stamps. Antique Christmas cards and decorations were on display during the tour of the Historical Society.

 

Reading The Jolly Christmas Postman allowed us to peek inside the mail of a number of fairytale characters.
