Kindergarten Round Up

We knew that this day was coming but there is nothing that can prepare you for signing up your babies (yes babies) for Kindergarten.  You know that they are ready as they are now asking when it is a school day if they get to go to Kindergarten and discussing options for lunches at Kindergarten. 
Since the boys opted for 3 days of Pre-K at Towson Presbyterian, we temporarily delayed the going to school 5 days but we all knew it wouldn't last forever.

Despite the coldness that Old Man Winter raged for what seemed like forever, we have been soaking in the fun that our Tuesdays and Thursdays provide for us. There have been many outings to the zoo, the Science Center, fun lunches and tall ships and so much more.  It was the best possible decision to have them go to school only for 3 days.




Jackson was practically running to get to the school and Connor took a hand and walked in slowly.




We were buzzed in to the school and given some direction as to how the morning was going to go.  The parents were going to meet with the school nurse, guidance counselor and the records keeper.  While this was happening, the boys would have the opportunity to meet with other future classmates and Ms. Scotto.



They were a little behind so we had a chance to walk the kindergarten hall and see the artwork and some of the classes.





We walked up the steps and arrived at what appeared to be the library.  The boys spotted the toys, other kindergarteners and most importantly the books.  They didn't look back.  We were able to capture some pictures while waiting to have conversations about the boys and provide information.



Forget the toys, bring on the books.




When we were finished, the boys were able to get a gift from the school.  It included a snack and a juice.  It was a great morning and a great opportunity for the boys to see the inside of their school and meet some new classmates and possibly a teacher.  We heard great news that they were looking to have around 18 kids per class and with the decision to separate the boys, there is a good chance that they will each know someone in their kindergarten class.
