Open 🎄 Obsidian Daycare Centre Holiday Party

[Sofia Loris]

Sofia donned a set of vibrant yellow shimmering dress robes as she finished hanging the last of the decorations. She placed her wand in her left side pocket before smiling at her work. The main room had been transformed into a celebratory space that left availability for any December and New Year holidays to be incorporated into the party. There were many platters laid out with small bites, perfect for children and busy parents to grab, the usual toy area, and an arts and crafts area where children could make something for others. Some of the instructors and some parent volunteers had agreed to man areas across the space. There was also an area for older children to play gobstones or wizard's chess, something the oldest group had been learning the past month. She smiled as she saw Lena sitting with her two granddaughters, one who was no longer a student at the Daycare Centre, but had already finished her first semester at Hogwarts.

She walked over to grab herself a drink as she saw her granddaughter try to grab a sweet off the table. "Ah, ah, ah, you need to finish your dinner first," she said to Margot, who quickly started pouting as Sofia placed her back at a small table.

Out of Character:

Open to any Daycare Centre staff and children and their families (whoever that may include).

Margot was excited to go to a party. Her mum had even let her wear a pretty pink and yellow dress. It was the pink dress she had wanted to wear with all the ruffles, but it was still pretty, and it matched her grandma. Her curls flowed behind her as she ran to grab a treat while her mummy was distracted, but Grandma saw her. Margot looked longingly at the strawberry treat she wanted so badly and then stomped back to her seat, staring at the food before her. It was green. She would unknowingly eat green things when people hid them in her food, but ever since Lottie had told her how that if she ate too many green foods, it would turn her blood green, and eventually, she would turn into a greenaghoul and then be invisible. She didn't know what a greenaghoul was exactly, but she did not want to find out. "But I'm huuuuuungry," she whined to everyone, as she saw her mum shoot a dirty look at Lottie. She saw Margot crossed her arms and sat silently, staring at her food, as people walked in.

Tristan knew this event was mostly for the kids, but he was still excited for it. He was thrilled to have Mason enrolled at the daycare centre, it was as close to a school as he could get right now, and he was also happy to participate as a parent in whatever way he could. He had made sure Mason was dressed smartly for the occasion, smoothing down his shirt before they went in. He let go of Vivian's hand and looked around, before gestured to Mason. "Look, there's a girl your age over there. You should talk to her." He said encouragingly. He was a little worried about how shy Mason was, even though Vivian had tried to reassure him about it. He gave Mason an encouraging nudge, then smiled and approached the director. "The room looks lovely." He told her. "And I really appreciate this event, it's lovely for the kids." He said with a smile. "Mason is enjoying the daycare so far."

[Mason Collins]

Mason's eyes were wide when he walked into his school and saw it looked completely different. It was pretty, but different, which was strange. He glanced at his dad when he told him to play with a girl around his age. He knew her, as she was in his class, but he didn't often play with her and he was worried she wouldn't want to talk to him. Mason wished he could just stay with Vivian, but he wanted to make his dad happy. He hesitated, stepping forward a little and giving the girl a slight half-wave, uncertain if he should approach. She seemed upset.
