A penny war! UPDATED

Prudential Preferred Realty Butler PA (Prudential Preferred Realty) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 21:38:05 -0600

Here in the Moniteau School District, there has been a hard-fought battle going on!

For the last week or so, the classes at Dassa McKinney Elementary have been waging a penny war. I had never heard of a penny war, so when my first grader starting ransacking the house for pennies, I needed an explanation.

"Sometimes people are hungry, and we have to help them, Mom. We are all supposed to bring in pennies, and raise money for them."

Well, I already support our local food pantry, so I had no problem helping him find change to send in. I filled a zip-loc bag with quarters and pennies, all kinds of change, and put it in his back pack. He kept telling me not to send the quarters, but I told him that it was ok, he could take MORE money for the hungry people. He kept telling me no. Finally, he took all of the money, but he was VERY displeased with me.

Turns out, he was right, I was wrong. (He is SO pleased about that...)

Each classroom has a jar, and the highest score at the end of the war gets bragging rights, and a pizza party.

Pennies are the only thing that count! You don't want any silver change in your class jar. You are supposed to put the silver (and bills) in the other classroom's jars! It's a point system.

A penny is worth one point.

But a nickel takes 5 points OFF your score. NEGATIVE FIVE! Obviously, a dime is negative 10, etc.

So, if your mother insists that you take in silver change, you need to put it in some other class jar!

I was at the school today. Let me tell you what our little elementary school did.

Around THREE THOUSAND dollars!

The final numbers aren't in yet, but I am so proud of our students! This is a little school, only 700 students.

Look what children can do to change the world. (That's a pun, get it?)

I'm going to make sure our local paper prints up a story about it!

Good job, Dassa McKinney! Our students, teachers and staff showed a lot of heart with this project!

Thanks!

***UPDATE***

The total is <drumroll>

$4301.00

FOUR THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED and ONE DOLLARS!!!!!

DASSA MCKINNEY ROCKS!!!!

Mom, I'm Bored! Or How to keep your sanity on ANOTHER snow day!

Prudential Preferred Realty Butler PA (Prudential Preferred Realty) — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 08:56:23 -0600

Here we are on Day two of no school due to weather. I commend the school districts for their decisions to keep our children safe.

However, my kids are going NUTS trying to find something to do!

I know there are some super organized parents out there that have creative activities and healthy snacks and meaningful dialogues prepared for days like this.

THIS BLOG ISN'T FOR YOU!!

Personally, I am feeling a little panicked thaFt I am going to have to amuse Gasoline (6) and Matches (4) for another day. Yesterday was easier. The weather was a little warmer, so we went sledding in the yard, and shovelled the snow. Today, the weather is much colder, and I can't just send them out to play.

Some things I have done that have worked before...

Cooking School. Kids love to cook. There is something inherently "grown up" about measuring, mixing, and of course, making a mess. We made waffles this morning, and my kids had a great time.

Pretend First Grade. I know my oldest has a spelling test if the snow storm ever stops. I gave them each a chalkboard and chalk, and we practiced. (The younger one just practiced writing his name). They got excited, called me "Mrs. Dodgson" and asked for extra recess.

Snowlfakes. You know this one! Paper, folded up, scissors. Keeps 'em busy for a little while.

Clean the toys. This one is so simple, but can cause a little mess. Squirt some dish soap in a container, and fill it with water, making LOTS of bubbles. Drain the water out, leaving only the bubbles. Have your kids find some washable toys, give them a washclothe, and let them clean their toys. I usually put a towel under the toy to keep the floor dry, but it keeps them amused for a while.

Crafts Not for the faint of heart, but kids love to paint, glue, and decorate everything that will hold still. And the cat if he's napping.

Theater DId you think I was going to say organize a puppet show with a stage made out of a cardboard box? Yeah, I guess you could do that. Sounds like fun for a patient parent. OR you could take the stressed parent's tip and rent a movie from the Movies On Demand, pop some popcorn, and spread a blanket out. Hopefully you will get some time to return phone calls without constant interruptions....

Office My kids love to do this. Papers, paper clips, stapler (if you don't have one of the "staple-less staplers, I really recommend them. Walmart and Staples have them, about $3), folders, business cards. Keeps them busy for a long time.... If you have an old (or toy) cell phone, this increases the fun.

I hope these tips have given you some ideas of ways to keep your kids (somewhat) amused without losing your mind. I know it took me an hour and a half to write this because I had to break up some fights, refill some juice, deal with a broken toy, and put a band-aid on a non-existent wound, but that's okay.

That's what parents are for, right?

Stay warm!
