Today was the first of several theme days at my daughter’s school. The short list includes:
- Rocker day
- 50s-theme day
- Pajama Day
- Spirit Day
I see the appeal. You get to do something out of the ordinary, and you get to compare notes with all your friends and classmates who are doing the same thing.
It’s a wonder that I haven’t considered THEME DAYS at home over the summer or an extended break. A short list of my own ideas:
- Band day (we write and perform a song)
- Sports day (we play at least three different sports and wear appropriate gear)
- Book Character Day (we spend the day acting like one of our favorite book characters)
- Movie Character Day (we spend the day acting like one of our favorite movie characters)
- Outdoors Day (we spend at least two hours outside the house or car)
In any case, there are simple things that my daughter does at school that I could be replicating at home.
