Groggers Galore !

So many groggers! How do you choose?  How are the groggers alike and different?
Sophia picked two groggers that were different in shape, but had the same patterns.
Matthew's groggers are very different except that they are the same shape.
Jonah's groggers are very different,but we couldn't stump him as he knew that they both made noise.  Great way to think out of the box!
Max's groggers are different in color,but they both have the same shape.
What do Sammie's groggers have in common?  She was quick to answer,"They have handles."   What  a great observation.
After looking at real groggers, we began to make our own groggers for Purim.  The first step was to dot paint a paper plate.
The next step was to fold the paper plate in half.

Both Max and Laura have filled their cups half way with beans. What an easy way to integrate the concept of one half into the childrens' conversation.
  Always nice to have a friend help you hold open your grogger. 

Jack and Charlie are cutting the streamers for their groggers.
Now the fun begins as the children shake the groggers to drown out Haman's name. We are ready for Purim!
