Christmas Around the World: Denmark

Fifth Graders are learning about the Christmas celebrations and traditions of different countries around the world. Our first stop: Denmark.
The legend in Denmark is that the animals spoke on Christmas Eve. In honor of how well the animals took care of the Christ child, children in Denmark give a special treat to animals on Christmas Eve.
Here we are making peanut butter-pine cone-bird feeders.
BUSY at WORK



Stringed up and ready to hang outside

Jason braves the high altitude and climbs a tree to hang a bird feeder




The birds will love this!
Our tree hugger, I mean, climber! Luke climbs another tree for us!
Daniel couldn't resist climbing a bit to help out.
Annie and Alissa risk it to climb a large....bush! :o)
