Our last stop was the U.S.A. We learned about all of the Christmas traditions that were started in the United States. We made mini candy canes, watched The Polar Express and ate cookies! What a great way to end Christmas Around the World. We had a lot of fun discovering different traditions while learning our continents.
Today we learned about Germany traditions. We read Why Christmas Trees Aren't Perfect and talked about the tradition of Christmas trees from Germany. We also learned that Germany gave us yummy gingerbread.
