after school printable

Welcoming the school days with this "how was your day?" printable. I've decided to bring to life, these simple questions I've asked my kids for the past five years. Wishing you and your children a very smooth transition back to reality! Want to mix it up a little? Think about completing a printable yourself and exchanging stories over dinner.

Express Yourself

Do you know a kid who loves art?

Silverbox is having a contest to design, draw or create a self~portrait. The rules are, there are no rules. Express yourself! Be creative as you wish. Crayons or camera, paint or pencils, we want you to show off your personality, and can't wait to see YOU!
