Happy December everyone!! We’re well and truly in the run up to Christmas now, so this week at The Children’s House we will be talking about how we celebrate Christmas, and how important it is to show people that we care not just through presents, but by how we act towards them and how we show love and respect to each other. We will be doing lots of fun stuff like decorating the classrooms, dressing up, making salt dough decorations and also making wrapping paper!

Bualadh Bos (Jingle Bells in Irish)

Bualadh bos, bualadh bos, bualadh bos go léir,
Tá San Nioclás ag teacht anois,
Anuas an simléar – oh!
Bualadh bos, bualadh bos, bualadh bos go léir,
Tá San Nioclás ag teacht anois,
Anuas an simléar!!

I’m a Little Christmas Tree (tune: I’m a little teapot)

I’m a little Christmas tree tall and straight,
Here are my branches for you to decorate.
First you put the star on the very top –
Just be careful that the baubles don’t drop!
