I survived my first Halloween as a preschool teacher! It was much less chaotic than I was expecting. The other two classrooms really outdid me in decorations and I felt a little lame in the morning when I saw that, but by the end of the day I thought my room was just perfect. We had five activities that the kids could rotate through as they desired. Everyone had fun and there were no major meltdowns or out of control scenes. Just kids having fun. I was quite pleased, and happy when the day was over!!

One thought on “Halloween in preschool

  1. Looks perfect! I find that simple and structured works best. Some kids don’t thrive on different and “fun” days, and it’s so important to take care of everybody in the class. :)
