Storytime at Schoolkutti Library
Regardless of age, the presents we get from our parents on Christmas Day, as well as the memories we share with our family, make the occasion meaningful and memorable. Sam in this story is likewise a little curious about his Christmas present, so he decides to go gift hunting. Sam could only find gifts for others after searching every nook and cranny in the house. Later, he discovered his gift wrapped in silver paper under his bed. Despite his curiosity, he has decided to wait till Christmas. During story time, children were excited to discuss what they received as a gift last Christmas and what they are anticipating this Christmas. The list went on and on, from puzzles to remote control cars. Then everyone seemed disappointed at the end of the narrative since they didn’t know Sam’s gift. But, in the end, they all agreed with Sam’s decision not to open the present. Later, we played a story-related word game in which everyone seemed to be competing to guess each word. In celebration of the Christmas season, we made paper Santa Clauses for crafts, and the children transformed the white Santa into a Christmassy Santa by adding red and green colours.
