The Show and Tell date was changed from Friday to Thursday afternoon. Since we have this tremendously busy free schedule Thursday was a perfect day.
Right at 3 O’Clock we arrived, checked in, got our Visitor’s Badge and headed on down to the classroom.
The classroom was fun, bright and full of about twenty Kindergarten children.
Clap, Clap, the teacher called everyone into a circle…it was now time. The first little boy brought a Star Wars toy… At first he was so scared he couldn’t remember the name of the toy…just one question from the surrounding kids and his face lite up and the excitement spilled out as he explained all about his Star War character. I can’t remember his letter, but I do remember his shining bright eyes!
The next little girl brought a pony—Rarity from My Little Pony-for the letter R. She told how much she loved this pony and hoped that someday she could own a real My Little Pony.
Then it was Tallen’s turn…up we went…Grandpa on one side, I on the other…she gave Grandpa a hug, kissed my hand and looked at all the kids and FROZE!!! The teacher then had to ask her questions…why are they here…G for grandpa and Grammy. Okay, and thing else…silence…Grandpa said he had on a GREEN shirt…a little boy yelled for G! Then I whispered to Tally that she could pass out some G’s, which brightened her face–the teacher then asked Tally to explain what she was passing out–not shy now she said-glitter G’s with Gummy bears! Everyone got one.
Then it was time to line up for the bus. Tally got to leave with us…another treat!
That was our day at Kindergarten—a delightful fun fifteen minutes with shinning faces and eager smiles!

Was that your fifteen minutes of fame? So glad you were able to go. Kindergarten is such a great age–so grown up, but not quite.

Aw, so much fun. Some of my favorite memories of my grandparents are when they would come visit me at school for special days like this. I remember a few times in elementary school when they were visiting from out of town and came to pick me up (instead of me riding the bus). Always so exciting!
