On the sixth day of Christmas...

...my true love gave to me, 6 geese a-laying.


Because Nicolas was sick yesterday, we were not able to finish this day until this morning.  The 6 geese stand for the 6 days of creation.  The boys each drew a picture of what God created for each day of creation.




Then we read this book.  Not the best Patricia Polacco book - I was a little disappointed.



We also watched a video from the library that tells the story of Snowflake Bentley.  It had illustrations like a Reading Rainbow video, but also had live footage of a man acting the part of Mr. Bentley and showed actual photographs that he took of snowflakes.  I was impressed with the video and the boys enjoyed it.
