Jacen starts daycare tomorrow. What am I forgetting?

Posted by TFox Oct 12 '09, 18:28

I have a full change of clothes and shoes packed to leave in his cubby. A stack of diapers. They provide snacks. It's a half day program for now, so he doesn't need lunch. There's no nap in the morning, but he has two identical version of the bear he sleeps with, so we'll probably bring one anyway. I must be missing something obvious, right? A cell phone, so he can call me if any of the other kids are mean?

I need scotch.

Make sure to tell him to take down the biggest kid there in the first hour so the rest will leave him alone. -- nm - Beaker Oct 12, 18:44 1

Blanket, stuffed animal, (is he still in diapers when he sleeps?), and the ability to drop off and walk away. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 12, 18:42

- I picked out his outfit. Virtually guaranteed to get vetoed by Mom in the morning. But I tried. -- nm - TFox Oct 12, 18:42
scotch? what the crap of daycare lets kids have scotch?? -- nm - amanda Oct 12, 18:35 4
- yeah, you've got to start them out with something like hard cider. -- nm - Reagen Oct 12, 18:38
- why else would they have those no-spill sippy cups? like anyone gives a nut if a little juice gets wasted. - TFox Oct 12, 18:38
- good ones. -- nm - Ron Burgundy Oct 12, 18:36
- No, no. The scotch is for the daycare workers. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 12, 18:36
Daddy why do you hate me! Please don't leave me here with strangers!! DADDEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! - Lil Fox Oct 12, 18:35 2
- i have a friggin mandatory 9:00 meeting in the morning too, so it's not like I can take a long morning getting him settled. -- nm - TFox Oct 12, 18:41 1

  - Somehow we never seem to have enough. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 12, 18:38
Picture of you and mommy in case he misses you? -- nm - JenBro Oct 12, 18:32 3
- I wouldn't want him to get beaten up on his first day of day-care -- nm - Roger More Oct 12, 18:39 2
  - but you give it to the day care person ... as a "just in case" - it would give comfort - other kids don't need to know -- nm - JenBro Oct 12, 18:45

wipes. And label all his clothes. -- nm - psilotum Oct 12, 18:30 5
- they need individual wipes for each kid? i figured at a daycare they'd just have vats of em. ok, interesting. - TFox Oct 12, 18:32 4
  - and the shoes. -- nm - Beaker Oct 12, 18:33
  - I'm sure some places provide wipes, but very few. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 12, 18:33 2
    - we have a detailed list, but it's in SheFox's car and I'm too nervous to wait til she gets home to start getting stuff together. -- nm - TFox Oct 12, 18:34 1
      - Eh. Stop worrying. Or he'll notice it. I'm sure it'll be good for him. -- nm - Don Homer Oct 12, 18:35
