TRUNK OR TREAT/Halloween Festivities 2010

I must say that our very first "Trunk-or-Treat" turned out to be a huge success! The children, staff & parents all seemed to have a blast and we have decided that it should become an annual event at the CDC! So parents, start planning now on how you will decorate your car (I didn't realize what a huge event this is at some places, until I saw a full blown castle built around someone's car at my church this weekend... I'm not going to lie, it got me really excited at the thought of taking our little CDC event to the next level for next year)... Maybe we can have a door prize/competition for the best "dressed" vehicle. I think we can agree that the Weaver's would have taken the prize this year, with the giant, inflatable cat. You all were already on the right track this year, as we had GREAT parent participation and the parents, as well as the trunks, were very impressive! We also noticed that having this morning event was a great outlet for the children to get all of their Halloween party/costume excitement out early in the day because they took great naps and every classroom seemed to be eerily calm during class parties at the end of the day (Which has NEVER happened, in the history of the CDC). So, overall, we vote that this event is a keeper for sure! Here are some photos from our awesome day at the CDC (Parents, please feel free to email or bring in a cd of any photos that you took from Thursday. We would love to see them all).

Some of the staff kids- worn out at the end of a very fun day!
