Preschool Celebrates the Harvest

Harvest Party is one of the biggest annual events at the Preschool campus. It is a farm themed event and a “dress-up day”! Each child comes dressed as anything found on a farm. The creativity is endless!

We base our Harvest celebration on the book “The Pumpkin Patch Parable”. This book tells the story of a farmer who plants pumpkins, and explains that just as the farmer carves his pumpkin that then lights up the night, so God does the same with His children; he is actively working in us making us full of life and light. The book is full of Scripture and sends a beautiful message. You might even want to get the book for home!

Our celebration included activities such as a pumpkin patch and photo area, fun games, art projects, and science and sensory activities. Each class prepared and lead age-appropriate activities with the help of parent volunteers. Parents were also invited to join their child’s class for the pumpkin patch time (yes we had a pumpkin patch!) and outdoor fun. Each year we look forward to the Harvest Party and the memories we get to create together with our little ones!
