Miss M's Daycare has their Annual Easter Hat Parade the week before the Easter Weekend. After making Miss M's hat for her last year being only 1 and a half, and her winning for her room, I decided this year Miss M could decorate her own hat that I made from cardboard I had laying around the house.

Miss M took about an hour to decorate her hat, carefully placing each item onto the hat. She used Easter wrappers, sequins, feathers, bells and gems. All these items we already had around the house from previous art activities.

The Daycare even put on an Easter Egg Hunt for each age group, Miss M had a blast finding her eggs, she found 5 and was extremely proud.
Miss M didnt win the best hat, but she had a blast decorating her hat and she is a winner to us. We didn't give her a prize, because that's not teaching her anything about being a good sport, but she got lots of cuddles and everyone told her how beautiful her hat was, and the smile on her face, the smile of accomplishment was the reward.
I will post again after Easter of our Family Easter Celebrations. We are not religious but we use these holidays as a way to spend time as a family.
How do you celebrate Easter in your family?
Do you reward your children if they dont win something?
Does your children have Easter Hat Parades at school?
Until next time,
Keep Smiling.
Kirra :)
