Johhny Appleseed


Happy Birthday Johnny Appleseed! Each year our Kindergarten and First grade classes celebrate Johnny Appleseed's birthday. His original name was John Chapman and was born September 26, 1774. We have our Principal dress up as Johnny Appleseed and pass out apples to the kids. In the past we have always had to buy the apples. This year we decided it would be a lot cheaper to go up to Nick's grandma's cabin and pick them off her apple tree's. The kids had so much fun deciding which were the good apples and which ones we needed to throw over the fence to the deer. I think Kasen and Avery purposefully went around biting apples just so they could throw them. It was pretty funny. We only needed about sixty but I think we ended up bringing home double the amount.
