What do Kitah Bet students love more than their mommies?! Doing special things for them, of course! We have had lotion as a feature of our goodbye circle the entire year. This lotion has a calming scent to it that comes in handy during the part of the day where children are transitioning into either nap or carpool. The children have always been drawn to this ritual and never seem to miss an opportunity to remind us when we try to skip over it when we run out of time. Let's face it, Morahs are human, too :)
We took this as an opportunity to create something, the lotion, that the children connect to, and tied it into our Ladies' Day celebration. As we thought, the children ate it up, figuratively, of course!
Here, we introduced the ingredients: Coconut oil, beeswax (from bees!), Almond oil, shea butter, and the essential oils cedar wood, lavender, and citrus.

| Lily didn't mind so much! |
 |
| Yonah wasn't so sure about touching the beeswax |
 |
| Leora said, "The beeswax feels like tofu nuggets!" |
See how we mix them all together!
Then our special guests came to our classroom! We had a dance party, sang, "Be My Friend," decorated the containers and gave hand massages led by Morah Yael.
