I would let the children help decorate the classroom with their art work.
Also let them make the invitations using their hand prints, made in art.
I would also have the children work in my classroom so the parents can see what the children have been doing all week.
MY INVITATION
You are invited to our Art show
Date:
Time:
Place:
refreshments/door prizes
the door prizes can be some of the children's art work framed.
I will have the children make all the decoration. They make tissue paper flowers for the vases. We also will make napkin ring holders. The children will do a presentation of their favorite songs, finger plays etc. They will get to bring their parent to the centers and share their favorite activity with their parent. We play games that we learn in class like memory games. I will video tape the children preparing a snack for their parents. The children take their parent to the table and everyone eats together as one big family. We reassemble in front of the TV and I play the video of their child preparing for the big parent meeting. the importance of putting children in the car seat, potty training info. etc. The children make thank you cards for their parents and draw a picture and I dictate what the children tell me on their picture and send it home with the parents. I also include a survey evaluating our care and ask for suggestions on how we could improve or what other things parents might want us to offer. For the meal I will have pizza and soda .
