Kindergarten on the Peoria.com Forums

I volunteered in Abby's kindergarten class today and I was so amazed by the kids...they were so cute, so well behaved, and so enthusiastic about everything the teacher did. I am so amazed by her teacher and how well she engages the kids.

I am a happy mamma today!

Sounds like a good morning for you and I'm sure Abby was thrilled you could be with her.

I'm making treats for all 3 kids October/Fall parties at the end of the month. I need some new ideas!!

Abby's school doesn't have a Halloween party...boo! Oh well...lilsister and I are in charge of the Valentine's party and we are going to rock it, lol!

The advantages of being active in your childs classroom are to numerous to count...

I made these ghosts on broomsticks last year. Easy to make and the kids loved them.

Here are some ideas...

ok...since they are the little pretzels.. did you just give one per kid? I have 60 kids I need to make these for..

I also found these..

I could use the ghost shaped Peeps or pumpkins..and then just put them on a stick and dip them in white or orange chocolate.. Then I won't even need to shape the marshmallows.

Those owl cupcakes are adorable! And Frankensteins on the 2nd link!

I gave 2 per kid but I wasn't the only one who provided treats.

My niece brought worms and dirt to school as her birthday treat last week. Chocolate pudding topped with crushed oreos and gummy worms. I found a picture online:

It would make a pretty good hallow ween treat.

Leslie, just a heads up but by the time the kids get to 5th grade they're not that excited about being at school anymore. Enjoy these early years.

Too!

huh?
