Festival of Trees

Every year our class enters the 'Festival of Trees' at the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa.  This year instead of doing a gingerbread house we decided to create our first tree!  We decided to use the childrens hands and cut them out of salt dough; and then paint them green to create our tree.  We then glittered the alaphabet and added a litttle snow.  The title of our tree was "He has the whole world in his hands." At the top of our tree are the hands holding the earth!






The best part about entering the exhibit is taking a field trip to see our entry! After touring the museum we take the children to see Santa at Utica Square and give Santa our letters we have written him in class.  This is always a fun and festive field trip!
