 Happy Chinese New Year!!! It is the Year of the Rat... and that's not a bad thing.  Lunar New Year is celebrated in China and each year is associated with a certain animal.... there are horses, sheeps, monkeys, roosters... etc... and each animal is associated with lots of personality traits.  We took some time on Thursday to celebrate and learn a little bit about boys and girls from another country.  You can see our Chinese lanterns and lucky dragon masks.  It was so much fun and actually went right along with our discussion about Dr. King... because we are all friends .... no matter where we live or what we look like.  I think we all agree that Chinese New Year is awesome!!!!

One friend even let his penguin try on his lucky dragon mask!!!! So we all got in on the fun!
