The halls of Dobbins Elementary were filled with the smell of freshly-cooked pancakes during Pajama and Pancake Day May 26.
The kindergarten classes of Elaine Fabrizi and Stephanie Mateja wore their bedtime pajamas to school and brought their favorite stuffed animals to share with the class.
The breakfast menu consisted of fluffy buttermilk pancakes, sausage and turkey bacon served with the choice of orange juice or milk. Kindergarten parents volunteered to help prepare the meal for the students.
This is the third year for Pajama and Pancake Day, but the teachers plan to keep the event as a kindergarten tradition for years to come.
The students read Laura Numeroff’s “If You Give a Pig a Pancake” along with other children’s books pertaining to pancakes. The morning was topped off with the viewing of “Alvin and the Chipmunks.”
Fabrizi said the students will write about their favorite stuffed animal they brought as a journal entry for the morning event.
