Jingle All the Way

Theme:  Letter J
We met Jack the Jellyfish who introduced us to letter "J".  We took turns pulling items out of a Jar that begin with the letter "J" such as jaguar, jewels, jump rope, jeep, jet, jellybeans, jingle bell, jar of jam, baby Jesus....I suggested that Jesus is the best "J" item and the Most important reason for Christmas.
