So, I put a diaper in a bag and asked them to guess what I had in bag. They started off guessing random things - from candy to seashells. So I finally stopped them and asked them to guess the color. After a few guesses, someone finally guessed white. Then I gave them a hint. One of my student's mom is expecting her fourth baby any day now. My hint was that "I bet Riley has a lot of these at her house. " This got the ball rolling. They were now guessing rattles, bottles, pacifiers, etc. Finally, the fifth guess was a diaper. I asked them, "Why would a bring a diaper to school?" Someone said, "To give to Riley. " No. Then someone said "YOUR HAVING A BABY!" Then they were all yelling "Yeah!"
A few seconds later, one little boy said, "Wait! You cannot be having a baby!" To which I responded, "Yes I am." He then answered, "Well, I don't see it, and you are not even FAT!" I told him it would be coming! Pretty soon they would be rolling me down to the playground!
The kids then told me if they thought the baby would be a girl or boy. We made a chart!
Here is the kiddies with our chart!
As you can see, most kids think it's a girl!
It was time for us to head to music. On the way, I told them that they could tell their friends that I was expecting. They then asked could they tell the principle and other teachers. I told them that I had already told them. One little girl said, "Wait! Have you told Gunter yet?" I replied, "Yes, Gunter knows." It is so funny that they think so highly of themselves and that I would tell them, before I told my husband!
My class at the Pumpkin Patch!
Tomorrow is the big day! We will know if Baby Price is a boy or girl!
