What are we doing in April? It's spring! The sun is shining more and more often, so we are spending more and more time outside. We like to work in the garden in warm and sunny weather!
Our agenda is full of festivities again, April is a busy month! Just look at it:
On April 1st it is still Eid al-Fitr, we have just finished baking. There were mainly baked a lot of delicious cookies. Today we read an Eid al-Fitr picture book for the last time this year and everyone likes this year's books!
April 4th we celebrate Pancake Day, then we bake extra delicious pancakes, this time with pears! We are already starting in the first Easter book, even though it will be a while before it is Easter Day.
April 18 is Good Friday so no school.
April 20 & 21st it is Easter in the Netherlands. No school on Monday 21st. We have already read this year's Easter book many times! It is super funny, the chickens are on strike and the Easter Bunny is getting rich! Chicks are knitted by the monsters, a delicious spring salad is made and we bake bunny rolls.
April 22nd is Earth Day, we make a transparent earth with kite paper and sticky foil. We bake cute cookies and we read a fun picture book: We ate sunshine for breakfast, so appropriate :))
Finally, April 26th is King's Day! We make truffles and mango lemonade. very yummie! We make edible tulips and the bigger monsters read The Foolish King. A special book about chess. Unfortunately this book has not been translated into Dutch so they have to do their very best to read it ;))
Now it's finaly over with all the festive days of April and not a day too soon! Some peace and quiet is needed now ;)) We still bake all kinds of goodies of course and we craft. So if you want to take part in it, come and join us. @snazzie.nl you are always welcome!
