We started back to school today. The kids (and I) always enjoy the first day of school. Big Girl says the first and last days of school are the best. :-) We started off with a scavenger hunt in the house with 11 clues leading to a special snack. Then we did our pencil hunt in the living room. And we ended with making their beginning of the year poster sheets with their stats, self portraits, and hand tracings. It was a good day! 1 down, 179 to go! :-)

Loved all the pictures!!! So glad the first day of school was such fun and turned out great. Too bad I missed out on all the fun! :-) Hopefully, the next 179 school days will be good ones. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great first day of school- I like your ideas for how to start with the clues and posters and all - great way to look back and remember the start of the year and the progress of the rest of the year.
ReplyDeleteThe girls looked so pretty for their first day at school. Always love seeing pictures of the children Jessica - thanks so much for sharing them. Love and hugs to all.
