Beginning Orchestra/Band Party

Last Monday was a day off school for fall break, so Katie and I got our beginning band and orchestra kids together for a party.

As kids arrived, they played a game: Put the new music stands together!

Then they played Untie the Knot. They all stood in a circle, grabbed the hand of a person across from them, and then attempted to untie the knot created without letting go of the hands you held.

A few of the girls were grossed out by holding sweaty hands! I took a few of the sweaty-handed girls who were already untied to pick up the pizza. The people at the Döner shop smiled when I walked in with 4 kids to get 10 pizzas. They even gave me a 1 Euro discount!

We ate lots of pizza, but the highlight of the party was the chocolate fondue!

After eating, we watched the movie “Up” while snacking on cookies, popcorn, etc.
