Room Mom

Is that really PC? What if a dad wanted to come bring treat and do crafts with their kid's class? Well, I am one of many "room mothers" for Corbin's class this year, and it is so fun! There is a "head room mother", and I think I am glad I don't have that job. I did get to do the craft and the snack for the Halloween party though. I loved seeing all the kids' costumes.

Corbin was an M&M, because he didn't think his other costume was very conducive to normal school activities. He was excited to see that his teacher was an M&M too.

For the craft, the kids could choose if they wanted to make a spider or a mummy. Most of them chose the spider (which was a good thing, because it turned out to be alot easier.) I think they turned out pretty cute. The funny thing was that all the kids were like, "Do I get to take this home?"

I also brought Halloween pretzels shaped like pumpkins and bats and made monster face apples that looked this. It was actually hard to get creative with snack, because of all the rules about what you can and can't bring to school any more. Nothing "homemade" is allowed. I think the apples were borderline, but who's gonna tell?

I think Corbin had fun, and so did his room mom. :)
