Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!


Posted by Picasa
Sarah's class is studying a unit on Fairy Tales in class this month, and yesterday she brought home the cutest creation. Abbey is holding it in this picture...it's Rapunzel in the tower and her hair is hanging down. Adorable. Sarah was telling me this morning about the elements of a fairy tale. There are at least 7 distinguishing criteria, and if there aren't 7, then it is only a folk tale...or so says Sarah. In a few weeks, their class is going to have Fairy Tale day and they get to go to school dressed as their favorite fairy tale character. I remember Will's class doing this last year, and almost every little girl was a princess. It's a bit harder for boys though. Will went last year as one of the pigs from the Three Little Pigs, but I do remember seeing a couple of knights and at least one Peter Pan. Sarah has already decided she wants to be Rapunzel, so I've gotta get busy on a costume! Fun, fun, fun!
