Comments on: All she needs to know she’ll learn in kindergarten http://mothergoosemouse.com/2008/03/14/all-she-needs-to-know-shell-learn-in-kindergarten/ A first-grader destined for a career as a lawyer, a pre-schooler whose screams can shatter glass, a bouncing baby boy who evaded an IUD, a man who can drink his weight in Natty Light, and a woman who has long since given up caring about the condition of her kitchen floor.

We've been to the donation parties, too, and many people did still bring a gift, but most did not. I say go for it. <em>mrs t's last blog post..<a href='http://lachucheria.blogspot.com/2008/03/friday-five.html'>Friday Five</a></em> My daughter attended a party where each child was supposed to bring a gift for a gift exchange ($10 limit).

We also go through old toys before a bday to give away to "make room" for the new stuff but I'm really liking the toy drive idea. Also, the moms of the class have agreed to ban the "goody bags" for the guests of the party. SO glad about that.
