December Guides

The holiday season is here and it's the perfect time to gather your family for art, poetry and music appreciation over tea and delicious snacks!

Tea Time Together™ includes everything you need to do art, music, and poetry appreciation over a cup of tea and treats. Gather your family once a week for 15-30 minutes and enjoy the fun and beauty of Tea Time Together™. No prep necessary! 

Each week you and your family will view a fun and seasonal piece of art, read a poem and learn the the story behind a traditional Christmas carol. Plus, we've included recipes (totally optional), artist biographies, and carols with lyrics and sheet music.

This month we have chosen 4 different pieces of art by 4 different artists, 4 poems by 4 different poets and 4 different carols - plus each week has fun facts and activities to ensure the time doesn't drag. This month the art is especially fun, the poetry is thoughtful and the carols are joy-filled! I'm willing to bet your kids will be interested and engaged (and they might even learn something without realizing it!)!

Over the month, you'll explore four paintings; four poems; and four carols. By the end of the month, you and your students will be familiar with a wide selection of seasonal art, music and poetry.

What's included:
- ‘Getting Started’: Everything you need to get up and running in minutes.
- ‘Tea Time Guides’: 4 Weekly Guides to be printed 2-sided. (8 pages)
