I was reading a magazine called Family Fun and came across a great idea! (BTW, This magazine is great for party ideas and fun things to do with the kids I really like it!) As we inch closer to school I'm trying to get sweet girl back into the routine of going to bed and getting up at school times so the article suggested having a neighborhood breakfast club! You get together with the people on your block (or people you know with school age kids)and rotate providing breakfast for the kids at whatever time you would normally have to be up for school. So in our case I'm going to say 7:30 because that is what time we would have to be at school. The article said they even encouraged everyone to show up in their pajamas but I think we will get dressed and just host it in the yard. Now I will have to find some fun ideas for breakfast food!
They also suggested having an after the first day snack party at the bus stop but we don't ride the bus and I'm already committed to Sonic after the first day of school.
You know you live in the country....

Sounds like fun. Although in you neighborhood I think you have a lot of older kids and there is no way they are going to get up early. They will sleep late until the day they have to get up for school. They don't seem to have the same concept of preparation. I would like to be sleeping late, but it is back to work I go.
woohoo...Sonic Happy Hour!
Breakfast club has been very fun! It's nice for moms too to get together and chat. I always am the first one to leave because of the little guy and his morning nap.
