Here's our growing list of things my son will know before entering 1st grade. (Several of these items are 'old news' but worth celebrating!)
1) properly write both his first and last name
2) dial his parent’s phone number
3) dial the phone and call a close neighbor/family member
4) make himself a proper sandwich (peanut butter, pickles and corn chips on open -face bread does not count)
5) tie his own shoes
6) ride a bike without training wheels
7) meet the family outside in case of a house fire
8) fasten himself safely into his car seat
9) the name of our mayor, governor, and president
10) locate his hometown on a globe
11) order his own meal at a restaurant
12) shake hands and say "Nice to meet you" when introduced
Send us other ideas and we'll add them to this list.
He's up for the challenge!
