Remember Christopher Reeve's quote about "America is a family"? We will be adopting a less fortunate child this year in my class through the Salvation Army Angel Tree program.
Her name is Joanna, she is two years old and wears 4T sizes in shirts and pants. Her shoe size is 7 1/2 (in kids). If you don't have a two-year old in your life, they love Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer, and girls love all that princess/dress up stuff. Anything I forgot that she might enjoy? Comment to this post and let me know.
I would like for you to bring in anything NEW you think this little girl would enjoy. I will buy her "main gift," which is a doll house. If you want to get together as a class and get her something, that would be wonderful as well (you can discuss all of this here on the blog if you want).
All of the items must be to me by December 14 so I can return it to the drop-off location.
Thank you for remembering that there are others who have less than we do.

I'm so happy that we can help someone that needs something more then we do. When I was reading what you wrote it brought tears to my eyes and maybe I can collet $2-$5 from everyone in our class and buy some clothes and dolls for the dool house you are going to get her.. maybe that will help her enjoy the holidays a little more. If there is any other ideas, everyone comment or tell me in class..
Maybe we could get accessories for the doll house, because they usually dont come with enough furniture. Or maybe cars.
I agree with Itg. We should try to collect as much money as we can so Joanna can enjoy her holidays this year. we should definetly try to get some dolls and accesories for the doll house.
My family has already adopted 2 children for the salvation ary tree program. we have a 6 year old girl and 4 year old boy named Antwan.
