180 days of school are required. But, once you get to about 175, I wonder if those last 5 days should even be counted.
I officially made field day rounds this week.
Apparently, Drew found his own field day slightly more compelling than his older siblings’ field day.
I remember field days – holding hands in a big circle singing “The Greatest Love of All” together and then releasing helium balloons with our names and addresses tied onto them on postcards with a plea for people to send the postcards back to us when they found the balloon. We all hoped our postcard would come back with a note written in another language. Never happened.
Gone are those days. Balloons aren’t green.
Maybe that would be a good summer activity with the kids. Would releasing 4 balloons be all that bad?
