2nd year Einstein program- The 2nd year Einstein program will be Tuesday, December 20th at 6:30.  2nd year Einsteins will need to arrive at 6:00.  We will have a preshow performance at 6:00 by the Starlight Brass Band for your listening pleasure.  2nd year Einsteins will need to dress in their “Holiday Best” for the performance.  Please follow the link below to be sent to a YouTube playlist of our holiday songs.  All Einsteins have been practicing these songs!  http://tinyurl.com/EINSTEINSONGSDEC2015
Oklahoma Methodist Manor Caroling- On December 21st all Einsteins will be caroling for some of the residents of Oklahoma Methodist Manor. During the month of December we will be talking about how we can help others meet their needs. To tie in our curriculum we would like to make a donation of adult size cozy, soft, warm socks or a festive holiday hat to the residents.   A collection box is in the hall near Ms. Bond’s homebase.  We will be giving them the gift of song and the gift of warmth along with some joy! Due to space limitations we will not be able to accommodate any extra adults. Good news…..you will not miss the show! You are invited to our first ever Cookies and Caroling!
Cookies and Caroling- On December 21 at 1:30 you are invited to the all Einstein performance of “It’s a Small World”. The program will take about 20 minutes and afterwards we will have cookies for you and your Einstein star to share together! 
Pajama Day- December 21st is pajama day! Your Einstein can come to Mayo in their pajamas and regular shoes J.
Coloring Book Exchange- We have a holiday tradition in the Einstein area. We exchange a gift of a coloring book and a box of crayons. We will do this on Friday, December 16. Please send a wrapped coloring book and a wrapped box of 24 crayons by December 15.  Please do not send markers or crayon boxes larger than 24 because we want all the children to have the same gift. The coloring book should be appropriate for either a boy or a girl – please no Barbie or Transformer type coloring books. Please address the gift; To: My Friend   From: Your Child’s Name
