The kids have so many extra things to do at school that there is hardly any attempt at school work. That does not mean they are not learning though. The entire school is going over to the Performing Arts Center, where a local college will share some Opera with them. My kiddo usually comes late on Wednesdays, so it is likely he will not go. He will not really know the difference. The kids and classes are busy making presents and greetings as well. It is going to be a long short week.

I hope all will go well with the kid. Maybe you can have your own brand of musical for him to participate in.

He is a listener only, mostly. I will make sure he has some music to listen to.

I still remember how excited we were the week before Christmas when I was a kid. I also remember my first Christmas when I started working and I could finally buy presents for my parents using my own money.

Wasn't that exciting. It was fun to wrap them just right as well.

@LadyDuck I do not know if young people today get that sense of pride but remember it well.

@GardenGerty I was so happy and proud to be able to offer something to my mother and to my father.

It's good he won't know the difference but sad he'll miss it.

His parents failed to communicate to us that he would be at daycare at regular time so we should have gotten him on time. It was a presentation of Amahl and the NIght Visitors.

That is really neat they will get to go to that. My son would hate it though as loud sounds bother him.

My afternoon kid does not like music and did not like it. They did Amahl and the Night Visitors.

It is fun to get out of the classroom. They do not know that they are still learning.
