My little guy will be starting prek soon and I want to do something special for him, but nothing grand. Any ideas?
I of course will take some pictures, but am thinking of some sort of new tradition for every year at back to school time to celebrate and make special.

Here in Germany they have these cones that they fill up with candy or small toys. I can't remember the German word for them! They are just cardboard cones with lids or paper coming out of the top. I wish I had a picture! I guess you could do something like this or decorate a shoebox. I hope this helps!

My oldest starts kindergarten next week :eek:, so I'd be interested in hearing some ideas too.

I ask the night before what do you want for breakfast and make what she wants.. morning are hectic so most days it is cereal BUT on the first day I like to make it something special.. and of course pictures...

How about a special outing after the first day to talk about it? We usually do a McDonald's run afterward and get a cone and talk about it and then the kids play. Or when dh gets home, we eat at a place of her choice.

DD will also be starting pre-k this year. Where doe sthe time go! We're planning on making her a special breakfast the first day, and going to Chuck E cheese After school. We never go there, dh can't stand it! So, we'll go there as a big surprise for her first day :)
