The Privilege to Vote

For family night last night we talked about elections. We told the boys a little about how an election works and why we vote. We talked about how important it is to use our privilege to vote. After our little voting/freedom lesson, we had an election with ballots and everything. We voted on what we were going to have for breakfast. The boys loved it and ask if we could do it every night...nope!

Josh was the election official since he leaves before breakfast and was a non biased party.

The victorious breakfast menu. I caved and gave Palmer his side of fresh fruit since he wanted it so bad.

Lincoln and Hunter also had preschool units on voting. They both had elections in their classrooms. How fun huh? They came home with little badges that said "I voted." They came with me to vote and thought it was very cool we all had badges alike.

These are the things that Lincoln's class voted on. I am guessing that the X meant that Lincoln was voting for it.

This is what I get now days when I ask Hunter if I can take his picture.
