Children made the "Kindergarten is Falling into Fall" display using ripped construction paper, brown paint and their handprints.

To create the “December De-Lights Us” board the children painted presents using Do-a-Dot paint bottles and glued bows and gift tags on to them. Each of the lights that the elves are holding has a student’s name written on it surrounded by glitter.
Another year I used the same elves but used "Holiday Gifts in Swirls of Color Bring Joy to One Another" as my heading. The children splatter painted their gifts by placing dabs of paint on paper, folding it in half, and then opening it to create a blot painting effect.

Children created 2-3 shape and color patterns on bells for the "Ringing in the New year with Patterns" display.
The "Kindergarten is Ringing in the New Year" contains a large bell listing students' New Year resolutions and horns with New Year poems and sequins glued on them.
