Back to School Fun!

August 24, 2016
Hello Everyone,
 We went back to school this week! While I will miss summer, I look forward to having a routine again! Since back to school is an exciting time, I compiled a list of activities that you can plan to make it extra special!

1. The night before school starts, fill your child's room with balloons. Buy or make a special card.

2. Plan a special breakfast or dinner for the first day of school.

3. Make a scrapbook of old pictures from past first days. This is easy with Shutterfly or Snapfish.

4. Write a cute note to put in their lunch.

5. Make a time capsule. In the capsule place pictures, newspaper articles, and other memories of 2016. Open it next year.

6. Have a family fun night on the Friday after school begins. The family can come together and talk about the first week. Rent a movie, do a craft, or another activity.

7.  Buy an edible marker at AC Moore or another craft store. Use the marker to draw a heart on your child's sandwich.
