Have you turned the page on your 2010 calendar? There it is, the final month of the year. It's December, filled with holiday must-do activities and fun social event along with the routine things.. December also brings a lot of memories. I's the perfect time for writing down your childhood memories of this last month of the year.. They'll be decidedly different from your adult December days, I'm sure.
Here are a few questions to trigger those December memories:
1. What did you do in your classroom this month?
2. What changes took place at home?
3. What differences did you see in your neighborhood shops?
4. What kind of foods did your mom make only in December?
5. Were church services and children's programs part of your December?
6. Were the days longer or shorter for you this month?
7.. What special programs did you listen to on radio or watch on TV?
8. When did you learn that giving was as gratifying as receiving?
9. What's your favorite holiday family story?
I'll post my December memories tomorrow.
