Jack was the only one in his class that had both of his parents volunteer in his 1st grade holiday party. Scott had the "candy cane goo" station where they mixed cornstarch, food coloring, peppermint and water to make a liquid / solid goo to play with. I had the cookie decorating station. Each kid got two cookies; Jack was sweet enough to save his second one for his sister. There were 3 other stations the kids rotated through - all holiday themed. It was a great two hours in the classroom, seeing Jack in his element, meeting the students he has been talking about and getting to know a couple other parents. But the best part was probably watching Scott play "thumbs up 7 up" with the students. And the great part is that students picked Scott and he guessed which student pick him. Just about every turn, Scott was participating.
