You learn the important stuff in kindergarten.

Those who have been around here awhile probably remember my grand-daughter Ellie, and the many pictures I fondly posted. Time passes, and today was Ellie's first day of kindergarten. Barb called this afternoon, and Ellie gladly filled her in on the many things she learned on her first day of school.

Then Barb asked what was the most important thing you learned today?

Ellie's answer-----"The most important thing I learned there is that there is a girl's bathroom and a boy's bathroom". I guess it's true---you learn the things you really have to know in kindergarten.

Kindergarten !!....Ellie has come a long way since driving her fancy little car in Puerto Rico.
Thanks for sharing her most important observation.

When my daughter was in Kindergarten and Grade One, I was a volunteer in her class and in the school office; it was one of the best times in my life.

My niece, Maddie, started kindergarten last week. I always think of her when you mention Ellie. I will have to relate this story to my sister and have her ask Maddie if she's learned this yet.:smile2:

My niece Lisa also just started Kindergarten. After her first day she came home and informed her mother that she wanted to take her lunch to school from now on because the only food she saw in that kitchen was tacos and she did not want to eat a taco for lunch every day! She also thinks the new friend she has in her class is 11 yrs. old. Oh the fun we will have trying to change her misconceptions to truth.

Those were some of the happiest and busiest days of my life, when my son was in Kindergarten and primary school. Always room mom and voluteer work. I just adore that age!
