Re: Preschooler/School Age Moms..Back to School Poll
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? Yes, we need to get back into some routine.
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? Sliced Apples with sliced cheddar cheese.
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? So far, jeans at JCPenny.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? I got the schedule today. Mondays: Library Day (she has to bring back her library book from the week before), Wednesdays: Chapel (need to remember offerings), Fridays: Show and tell (there is a theme every week), I feel like it's too much to remember every morning to try and get out the door on time.
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? NO! we just confirmed today that the teachers contract was signed so classes will start tuesday but I don't know teacher or supply list yet!
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? School provides all snacks. For lunches snacks he wants: "mix" a mix of dry cereal, crasins, mini marshmallows, and chex
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? I'm waiting to hit up the Carters 50% off sale for underwear and socks. Boys are easy: Jeans and tshirts. I loaded on the jeans he always wears when they were on sale and tshirts from Threadless.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? I hope he likes it and makes friends easily. His Bday is middle of October and I'm affriad he won't have time to develop friendships for his birthday party.
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? yup
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? School supplies snack. We will get "the apple card" to bring fruit once. You need to bring a weeks worth.
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? um, haven't bought anything but shoes since i stocked up last winter. I am sure he will need stuff soon, once I realized he has grown out of pants.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? The new schedule will be hard. He is afternoons, so I need to push W's nap a bit, but I am looking forward to napping myself since M will be at school.
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? as ready as I'll ever be
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? they provide lunch and snacks
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? I but the next size up the year before and fill in as needed. Probably the cute gymbo pullovers I got in February for $4.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? It's a big change! And PT bootcamp is this weekend. He doesn't need to be perfectly PT to start so there's no presure there, but I want it done with.
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? Oh Gawd yes
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? At this school she brings her own snack. I *hate* group snacks. I make "Brain Cookies" which is a breakfast cookie that I beef up with all kinds of good for you stuff like flax seed, fiber powder, etc. She loves them because I do add a few chocolate chips. She's easily fooled
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? She doesn't need too many things so I am restraining myself for once. I always want to deck her out in new clothes but its wasteful and she is at the age where she will start remembering getting loads of new clothes at the start of the year. So I dont want it to become something she expects. She got a couple essentials and I'll treat her to more clothes for her birthday in January. My biggest steal was $10 jeans and $20 boots at Old Navy.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? We don't know her teacher assignment yet. We won't until right before school starts. Other than that, we are ready to get into a routine!
got the schedule today. Mondays: Library Day (she has to bring back her library book from the week before), Wednesdays: Chapel (need to remember offerings), Fridays: Show and tell (there is a theme every week), I feel like it's too much to remember every morning to try and get out the door on time.
Can DD be responsible for remembering any of it? Like if she has a schedule in her room? I don't know how much you want to donate but is it possible to keep several weeks worth of money in her a change purse in her book bag? She knows to give 1 bill and the rest is for next week? I always keep money in A's book bag for just in case. Also, we always keep the library book in the book bag. That's its home- that way she never forgets it, its always there. It is hard to remember everything but we try to take steps so we can't fail!
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? nope
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? those freeze-dried fruit pouches from Costco (E and I both love them)
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? the table I wanted for my classroom at IKEA in the as-is section because it was a floor model - $40 instead of $80!
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? Perhaps the fact that my classroom is still a bit of a disaster since our meetings went long both yesterday AND today?
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? - yes. I'm ready to have some predefined activities for 3 out of 5 days so I don't have to think up ideas every single day. (and I"m not good at that). Plus it means Cooper can start some activities too and I'm excited for that.
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? - At Ben's school, they tell us what to bring for snack. It's usually something like fruit and pretzels or cereal or something easy like that. LOVE IT. When I pack Ben's lunch (which won't happen this year), he likes cheese and honey sandwiches. Seriously.
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? - I stocked up randomly with sales here and there and spent very little... Childrens Place, Old Navy and Gap Outlet were my best bets. Now I jus thope he doesn't outgrown this size too fast
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? - My only issue is Tuesday... Ben and Cooper both get out at 11:30. So I'll have to leave Cooper's a little early and fudge being a little late for Ben. I hope I can make that part work.
1. Are you ready for the school year to start? yes!
2. What is your go to snack, for snack day OR go to sack lunch? luke could eat pb&j every day and be happy. Pretzels seem to be an universally okay snack.
3. Back to school shopping, what has been your best find? We haven't done too much, but we did benefit frm old navy's jeans sale.
4. Anything stressing you about the school year already? Luke doesn't get his schedule until the first day of scool. How in the hell am I supposed to shop for school supplies when we don't even know what classes he has? Plus, the school supplies are already being moved out of the way for halloween stuff!
