Christmas Around the World ~ Mexico

We traveled around the world studying different holiday traditions. We went to Italy, Sweden, Holland, Hanuka, and Kwanzaa. Our last stop and most favorite was Mexico. Mrs. Orner's class joined Mrs. Button's class and together we broke a pinata and received new pencils, crayons and glue sticks!
