Any Ideas for Preschool Graduation?

[Anna]

Does anyone have any ideas for a preschool graduation such as songs, movement, etc. that the kids can perform. Also, how long should the graduation ceremony be?

I am also going crazy trying to think up ideas...I will be using the song "Mr. Bell's Garden"...(Raffi: Bananphone) about a garden that keeps changing...("See how the garden grows...It's always changing, day by day"). The children will hold flowers that we will make with their baby pictures in the center. It's really tough to think of things to fill up the ceremony, no? Good luck. I feel that the goal is to make the Mommies cry! If you have any good ideas, please e-mail me! enrich1@frontiernet.net Thanks!

I knew it was a conspiracy! LOL

At my dd's graduation they had a slide show put to music of photos of things the kids did.

Are there songs that the kids know well that are their favorites? I think many parents want to see what things they did in school. I don't think you need to knock yourself out thinking of new songs to do.

Good luck!!
