Last Day at the Creche

Today was Evie's last day at the creche. They celebrate in a similar way they do with birthdays. Once at the creche we saw a sign on the door reading, "Oh what a pity, Evie is leaving! Have fun at school."

And also, similar to birthday celebrations, Evie gave all her friends at the creche a little present. This time she gave a styrofoam airplane in an envelope reading, "I'm flying outta here!"


We left the camera at the creche so the teachers could take some pictures of her celebrating and playing at the creche. Here they are all outside playing.


Once inside again Evie got to stand on the table while everybody sang for her. Evie says they sang all the birthday songs. We don't know if that's actually true or not.

She then got to pass out an extra treat for the kids. It was her idea to decorate an eierkoek for each of her friends. (Eierkoek, literally translated egg cookies, are a Dutch cakelike cookie.) So yesterday we got and decorated them with frosting and coated popped rice candy.



Before leaving she made sure each of her friends received her good-bye present.
