Back to School Prep

It’s that time of year again. Drive to any nearby shopping center and you will see that “back to school” sales are in full swing. This was always my favorite part of the school year—the part before school actually started. I loved getting new pens and pencils and fun supplies. Unfortunately for my mom, my excitement about going back to school didn’t carry on into the school year. Sorry, Mom!

Here at girltalk we have decided to join the “back to school” craziness. We want to collect and share ideas from all of you—to provide you with helpful tips, and also add a little splash of fun to your school-year reentry.

So, here is what we need…

1. Wake up ideas. How to drag those half-asleep kiddos out of bed in a fun—yet effective—way.
2. Your favorite tricks for a peaceful morning routine.
3. Thoughts for making that first day of school special.
4. How about those boring lunches? Any suggestions for making the PB&J a little more exciting?
5. Ideas for happy carpools.

Flood our inbox with your emails! Suggestions about any of these five school-related tasks would be most welcome. We will need all of your stuff by Sunday evening so that we can give you the goods next week.
