😴 Do kids still NAP in kindergarten?
Kindergarten is much more rigorous than it was when we were kids. Once upon a time, kids went to half day kindergarten and it looked a lot more like preschool...but has everything changed?

I've been doing a livestream on the Peanut App for a little over a month now. One question keeps popping up during my Q&A with a teacher...
Do kids still nap in kindergarten?
Sorry to say...no, no they don't.
Kindergarten is much more rigorous than it was when we were kids. Once upon a time, kids went to half day kindergarten and it looked a lot more like preschool. Now kids are reading, writing, and expected to complete a lot independently.
That's why I'm hosting my class this summer: Prepare your Child for Kindergarten
This course is for parents with children starting kindergarten this fall or within the next 2 years. Over 5 sessions I'll show you how to prepare them academically and socially so they will soar in school!
Find out more details here...class starts June 12. You can attend live or catch the replay.

📚 recommending again! Two weeks ago I recommended the Dragon Masters series and so many of your wrote in saying your child is obsessed. If you've been looking for a series for your child to get lost in, this is it!
🎧 life hack! Last weekend I went to visit my grandparents. On the plane, I fell asleep with my air pods in, and when I woke up one had fallen out. 😰 Luckily I always use this hand strap on the plane, so my air pod was hanging around my neck and not lost forever. You can set 6 for $6.99!
🧹 brilliant: When I was visiting my grandparents, I bought them a new vacuum. I found one that is lightweight (8 pounds!) and so easy to use. As I cleaned their house, I realized it was so simple...*cough* a child could do it. If you've got a kiddo ready for the next level of chores, this vacuum is under $60.
