First Day of School - First Grade

Today we started school for the year- first grade! On the first day of school we usually have a bit of extra fun and make some scrapbook pages.



















You don't need to be a "homeschooler" to have fun with this idea. You could do it when the kids come home after the first day of school! We like to make hand prints with paint and I like to have my little boy write his alphabet and this year he even wrote a few words.




















It was fun to see the progress from the first day of Kindergarten when he wasn't able to write the whole alphabet yet.






































Now that the school year is on - I will be limiting the time I have for Frugal Indy. So- the posts will probably be going to only a few times a week. But you can always check the wonderful lists of blogs in the left-side column for some great deals and reading.

That's such a neat idea! It will be fun for him to see his own progress, too, as the years go by. :)
