Bethel Learning Center's 4-year-olds have been learning about the first Thanksgiving celebration. The children created costumes and musical instruments, and made their own apple sauce, pumpkin bread (with real pumpkins) and "sharing soup." "It was a wonderful day remembering our American roots," said Bethel program director Kelly Porter.

On Tuesday, Oct. 25, the Bethel Learning Center Parents Group hosted a Fall Family Festival to help raise funds for a new playground for the school. BLC students and families came in costumes, played games, won prizes, had their faces painted, decorated pumpkins, and ate lots of delicious cookies. There were princesses and pirates, superheroes and mermaids, tigers and lions, and even a peacock. It was a spooktacular kick off to the Halloween season.
