New Canaan Country School Beginners students (ages 4 and 5) enjoyed their annual Lantern Walk celebration with shadow puppet plays, songs and handmade lanterns, which illuminated the night as they strolled across campus by the light of the moon. The students sang “Walk with My Little Lantern” guided by Early Childhood Teachers Jeannie Bean and Carin Walden as they paraded around campus, holding their lanterns. The evening was a much-anticipated event, which culminated a classroom study of light and shadow, puppetry and storytelling.
