Crafting With Seniors & Making Snack Bags for Preschoolers!

Reflection questions about today’s project to ask your child:

  • Did you learn anything interesting about the seniors while crafting together?

  • Why was it important to make allergy-friendly Halloween snack bags for the preschoolers?

  • What did you do today to help our guests feel welcome and included?

Our 3rd Grade Red Stars joined forces with our 2nd Grade Yellow Stars for a Halloween-themed afternoon of creativity, connection, and giving back!

We started by talking about the importance of connecting with older generations and how spending time together can brighten someone's day. We learned what it means to be a thoughtful visitor, practicing how to introduce ourselves, ask questions, and listen to others' stories.

Then it was time to get into costume and welcome our special guests from Cabot Park Village! Our Stars and the residents worked side by side on a festive haunted house craft, sharing conversation and creativity. 

The giving didn't stop there! Our Stars also assembled allergy-friendly Halloween snack bags for preschoolers at Village Preschool in Roslindale, helping make the holiday a little more inclusive for younger children in our community.

It was a wonderful afternoon that brought generations together and reminded our Stars that creating community is all about making connections, including others, and sharing a little joy!

Our teachers also got in on the fun dressing up as the Service Stars star icons! ⭐️

Have a safe and happy Halloween!
