Fall Break is October 13 - 17, 2025. Translation: “I’m bored” season starts now. Stock snacks, patience, and board games, and thank us later.
Teach kids how to memorize one important phone number - yours! That way, they’ll be able to reach you.
Snapchat’s “My AI” sounds harmless, but it’s not a babysitter. Check your child’s privacy settings today.
Kids don’t always remember to mention school events. Skim the school website or newsletter together so nothing sneaks up.
Fire Safety Starts With Me! This week, students will practice fire drills and learn how to stay safe in the event of an emergency. Help your child recognize fire alarms and evacuation signs, and review your own home plan, too!
Mondays are for planning—pack extra snacks or water if your child has after-school activities this week.
Even simple games let kids send messages. Learn how to talk about online kindness at Parent ProTech: https://app.parentprotech.com/1057/ware-county/en/signup?source=admin

New month, new routines. Take 5 minutes tonight to look at your family’s calendar together so kids know what’s ahead.
🐊 Motivation hack: Start the week with, “You are capable. You are smart. You are kind.” Cheesy? Maybe. Effective? Absolutely.
Ask your child: “What’s something you did today that made you proud?” Then share your own answer.
