On the first day of Christmas...

My mom, Kenzie's Nana, is where all my creative juices come from. She's just amazingly clever and creative. This year she came up with the idea of sending Kenzie goodies to the tune of "The twelve days of Christmas."

Here's how it panned out: Each day we commenced with song (Nana made it clear that the singing of the song was NOT optional. :) and then opened the gift bag which corresponded with each day. We started on the 13th and will be ending on Christmas Eve.

On the first day of Christmas...My Nana sent to me:

Now that we've finished the activity, I can honestly say that it was a blast. Kenzie looked forward to each surprise, of course...and was able to reconcile how far away Christmas was with the passing of the days. Nana even made sure that all foodstuffs were organic products. Well done Nana!!!!
