We have a theme every Thursday. For our 7 Holidays in an Afternoon we begin with a New Year’s count down. We build a champagne glass tower (using plastic champagne cups) and pour ginger-ale. For St. Patricks Day we have a Leprechaun treasure hunt, make cards for Valentine’s Day Cards.
@Kelly – I like the idea of Holiday Thursdays (or whatever day of the week) instead of all the holidays in one week. And who wouldn’t love a Leprechaun treasure hunt.
