The Spooky Haunted House

Once upon a time there was a haunted house right in the middle of kindergarten. 

It was a giant house.  It was black with a million windows, doors and gates. We wondered who lived in it. We looked and looked.  We listened and listened. We could not hear anyone....

To Be Continued...

Who do you think lives in the house?

Some days are messy...

A Special Reader

Didn't she do great?

The Haunted Trees of Halloween!

Once upon a time there was a spooky forest of trees.

When people would try to go to the forest, there was no sun and everything was dark. People would want to see the trees but they would run away because there were vampires, and snakes, and mummies and witches and ghosts and goblins and monsters and zombies and skeletons and bats hiding in the trees. All that the people could hear were voices whispering, "I'm going to get you!Boo!"

So all the people would stay away from the forest of trees!
