Family Fun night

 


 

Every year the school does a Family Fun Night Fundraiser.  We have never gone but I decided to take the kids this year since it's been so cold and we haven't gotten out much.  They have little games, bounce houses, balloon people, face painting and food.  They also have themed baskets that each class puts together from parent donations. (For example Olivia's class did Ocean Discovery so they asked for the kids to bring something to do with that theme, so we donated a puzzle with a picture of ocean animals.)  Then you can buy tickets for a $1 and place it in the basket you like for the raffle drawing at the end of the night.
 
I bought the kids wrist band (parent and preschool kids are free) and then bought each of them 1 raffle ticket to put in any basket they wanted.  I told them chances of them winning are not good so don't be mad when you don't win.
 
We went around to all the games and won different prizes at each one.  When we did the pop ring toss.  Austin won 2 pops, Olivia won 1, Savannah and Madi were surprised how hard it was and didn't win any so they went back in line to try again.  Madi ended up winning 1.  It was a fun night and they really enjoyed it.  As we were getting our coats and going over to see who won the baskets I got a text from our old neighbor asking if we were still at the school because Savannah had won the Movie Night basket she had put her ticket it.  She was so excited! and ran over to get it with a huge smile on her face.
 
The picture is a picture of all the stuff they got.  Inside Savannah's box was popcorn, caramel corn, juice boxes, tons of candy, 5 movies, Lego sets from the new Lego movie, Lego movie tee shirt, and $10 gift certificate to Little Caesar's.  It was really exciting for everyone that she won.
