It's official. My life is now exponentially busier. My older children are out of school for the summer.
To say thank you to the teachers that made a new school a great experience, I made these clipboards. I used the printable from Eighteen25.
It was a simple thing to print it out, decoupage to the clipboards ($1.25 at Wally World). The only thing that made me nervous was if the inkjet image would run a bit with the decoupage medium. I applied a coat to the clipboard, then placed the paper. I used a plastic spatula to carefully press out any bubbles. When it was dry, I added two coats of medium to seal everything.
Now onto the summer. I'm hoping to have something to look forward each day. Here's the schedule...
Monday: Chores and Laundry
Tuesday: Library
Wednesday: Music Lessons
Thursday: Summer Home School
Friday: Park Day
It is so nice to have everyone home. Hopefully we can keep the fighting to a minimum.
They're too cute to fight...right???

Of course, they are definitely too cute to fight.
The clipboards are adorable.
They sure are cute (gorgeous view too)! I know what you mean about the fighting though.... Love the clipboard!
As kids we used to fight constantly. I don't know how my mom didn't go nuts...
Sounds like a busy schedule but that's the only way to keep everyone happy, eh?
Those printables are perfect as well as your assistant! further -
thank you for the reality of this post. I find the most difficult aspect of parenting at this moment is the fighting. When they play nicely it is a moment which cannot be described in words. When the fighting starts...
I wish you a wonderful summer, with many memories.
The clipboards are a great teacher gift idea. Good luck keeping the fighting to a minimum :) Have a great summer, Chris.
That's lovely! And your daughter looks so utterly cute standing there holding it. What a sweetheart!
