Wilkes' Star Day (October 2012)

Every month at Wilkes' school they have a Star Day.  Each child has their own star day and today was Wilkes'.  The purpose of Star Day is so the kindergartner can bring in something special to them and tell the class about it!  But each month has a theme.  This month was books.

So, when Wilkes started at St. Cornelius and found out about his book Star Day he immediately began planning what book he was going to bring.  Of course this was 20 days out from his star day, so he first chose The Berenstein Bears.  Then it was Elliot and the Goblin War, but I let him know that book was too long to read in class over snack time.  Then it was The Cat in the Hat and finally, today, we settled on The Lorax! And it was special to Wilkes' b/c he loves trees and so does Dr. Seuss!

They also have to bring in a snack for the class and Wilkes, being Wilkes, had to bring Super Mario and Spiderman gummies.  When I asked him how his Star Day went he said, "Great! Tomorrow is Sophie's star day.  She's my girlfriend.  She'll be at the Boo Bash Friday.  They have dancing at the Boo Bash, I think I'll dance with Sophie, but not romantic."

He then proceeded to tell me he fell in after care off the scooter.

and FINALLY, in conclusion to Wilkes' first star day, he wanted to dress in Jax' halloween costume!

So, entertaining he is! <3

Stay tuned for November's Star Day, "Favorite Stuffed Animal"
