Dylan’s first day of kindergarten was last Monday. We visited his school the Friday before school started. We saw his classroom, met his teacher and picked up a bunch of information about the school and activities and programs they offer. He also learned that he wasn’t in the same class as his best friend, Avery. He took the news much better than I expected.
On Monday morning Nick and I took him for his first day of school. The kindergarten teachers have you drop off the kids on the playground in the morning instead of in their rooms. We met his friend Avery and her parents on the playground. The kids played and asked when we were leaving while the parents were getting choked up about their babies starting school. We waited until they lined up, watched them go into their classes and got one last peek at them inside their classrooms before we left for the day.
Avery’s mom and I texted all day Monday and were excited to pick up the kids. We were disappointed when they didn’t divulge many details. Pretty much the only thing Dylan told us was that he had music class and that the cafeteria is too noisy. Avery didn’t have much to say about her first day either.
I’m glad they had a great first day and can’t wait to see what the rest of the year has in store.
