Buddy the Elf and Buck the Reindeer’s Christmas Adventures!

This week OSHC has been full of festive fun, thanks to our two very special friends Buddy the Elf and Buck the Reindeer! From soccer matches to snack prep, these two have been on an exciting holiday journey with the kids.

Buddy and Buck joined in on a spirited game of soccer. The children kicked the ball around, but they made sure to include their cuddly companions in every pass, making it a team effort all around! After the game, it was time for some Christmas treats! Buddy and Buck helped prepare snack! The kids have had so much fun cuddling, playing, and creating with Buddy and Buck. It’s been a magical week of Christmas joy, and we can’t wait to see what next week’s adventures hold!

Check out some of the photos from our week of fun below! 🎄
