Children from Epworth Preschool in Rehoboth Beach put on a show Dec. 21, as preschoolers sang songs for the holidays.
Six classes came together to entertain the packed church sanctuary with performances of three songs each. The kids also came equipped with holiday-themed outfits.
Following the performance, the children got a visit from Santa Claus and were able to get their pictures taken.
