BLUEFIELD — Students of the Mercer County Early Learning Center participated in a “Fall Parade” Thursday morning from the school located in the former Cumberland Heights Elementary School to the Cumberland Road Dairy Queen restaurant several blocks away.
“We are trying to help the students enhance the use of their imaginations to be someone else for today,” Patricia Taylor, a teacher at the early learning center said.
The imagination enhancements took the form of Snow White, Captain America, ninjas, pirates and even a young lady whose imagination enhancement took the shape of a gingerbread man. The line of parade paused for an ice cream treat at the Dairy Queen, before the students marched back to the school.
