Thank you to Josie and her mom for sharing their family's tradition of welcoming the New Year with sauerkraut and sausage. The children had the opportunity to try their tradition (the faces were priceless) and learned that the long strands of cabbage are eaten to bring long life and prosperity. The children also learned that the pork eaten is to bring good luck. Josie's mom also read the children a German folktale, Rapunzel.
We loved the opportunity to learn about a new place through our friends and their family celebrations!
