If you are the parent of a kindergartener, then you are invited to the Boo Hoos and Bagels on August 19th (first day of school) at 8:10 in the cafeteria.  Drop your child off at their classroom and come join us for a little emotional support or just to meet other parents of children in your child's class.

In order to help five year olds embark on their journey to Kindergarten, here is a list of the important rules about life:

• Don't be afraid to ask where the restroom is.
  
• Always put on your pants before you put on your shoes.
  
• When using scissors, make sure you point them away from your good shirt.
  
• Flush. Share. Color in the lines.
  
• Wear your jacket outside on cold days even if it covers up your Batman cape.
  
• It doesn't matter where you stand in line as long as you're in it.
  
• Don't bother mixing purple and orange paint.
  
• No matter what anyone tells you, you will never be left at school to fend for yourself after all of the other children have gone home.
  
• The kitchen area isn't just for girls.
  
• Never call anyone a buggernose.
  
• Don't eat crackers with wet hands.
  
• Wait patiently for your turn.
  
• Try not to smear your nametag.
  
• When in doubt, raise your hand.
  
• Don't lick your glue stick.
  
• Don't spit in the water fountain.
  
• On the first day of school, cry a little bit for your parent's sake.
  
• And, most importantly, give them a good-bye kiss.  They'll need it.
