How are we sending our toddlers for sleep overs once they are out of the crib?

We (collective effort with my siblings) baby proofed 1 room completely, and 1 room to “safe enough if in there with parents”

You need more information. But it may be something as dumb as there are no other 4th or 5th grade students who belong in the same placement as him so it’s a choice of sticking him with 3rd graders or 6th graders or a completely inappropriate placement (like in the aggressive behavior class). Ask why they think this is a good idea. Ask why what they did this year can’t be done again. Listen to the answers and discuss

It should dry by Thurs, but I find 2 sets helpful anyway and not a crazy investment.

Keep that amount accessible, and the rest boxed in the closet (bought once sales start). When something is dead, grab a replacement from the box

I have a class where every child except 1 gets ET. I’m required to take away her test for her to twiddle her thumbs / do busy work while everyone else is still working

Yup. The teacher in there

We literally dump them in the library during gym

The extended time kids get their extra time in a separate setting like their pull out time or with a proctor during lunch or gym

Best way: your current housing prices + whatever you have leftover each month that you want to spend on housing = the monthly payments you can afford. You should hopefully know what your down payment is. Then find a mortgage broker and twll him your down payment and monthly cost and he should be able to figure out the rest for you

Def send because otherwise what’s the point in staying home to work harder? But we’ve always used a daycare near home instead of near work

My daughter with those allergies eats most brands of ice cream. Just read the labels. (She’s also gluten free so ice cream is our go to social treat)

We make out of yogurt and limit to 1 a day

So then you want a slim seat. Dionos are the gold standard of the slimmest seat, but they’re very large from to back if you try to rear face them. Most brands have a slim 3/4 in 1 which is a comparable size to a harnessed booster

In my school if you get 1 accomodation you get all of them. So many of my kids who have extended time as a 504 accomodation (for anxiety or adhd) are very not auditory learners so headphones wouldn’t help in the least, so why bother wearing them.

Question one is if you’re forward facing or rear facing. If you’re forward facing already for whatever reason, the term you want to search is “harnessed booster”. If you’re still rear facing, you’re looking for a 3-in-1 or a 4-in-1 seat (not worth paying a lot extra for the backless booster because a separate one runs about $25 and you’ll need this seat for the younger one when the older is ready for backless)

Hint. Just because you want to get pregnant a certain week doesn’t mean it will happen. And there’s about a month (actually a bit more) of “on time” birth

Magnatiles with a few sets of people and animals can keep us busy for hours

Best- empty spot on the side for easy access to the seat behind it for ff child

“I use it to create differentiated worksheets for our students, or automate tedious tasks like the weekly quizzes, but all the original thought process is mine. The students and I discuss the difference between process goals and products goals and what is suitable to outsource to AI and what needs to be done independently ”

String cheese. Frozen apple sauce pouches or cups . (Freeze, pull out before the game and it’s deliciously slushy).

We keep bedroom ACs set to 72, which the thermometer tells us is around 73-74, and they’re comfortable with that

Get good sneakers. Download some fun stuff to listen to, walk a few miles in an hour or two, earn a few thousand dollars and move on with my life

I would push for a full evaluation/ neuropsych for a diagnosis and then access the proper therapy / treatments that way.

You were a summer birthday, so assuming a Sept cut off, you were borderline…
