Back to School! Are your kids excited?

Hi double, [i]I have no kids but I have observed a lot of kids who are excited to see their classmates again, to use their new stuff(LOL), be away from the house...a lot of reasons for their excitement and i can also see some who are not and prefer to watch Tv, play games! LOL! When I was a student,it always excites me![/i]

Here in Finland not very many are excited, usually people hate school. I don't have kids but I hated school a lot too...

My son is so excited, over the summer is got a new style of dress and now he can't wait to show it off. plus this is his last year of Junior High and he is going to be getting ready for HS. so yes, he is so excited. my older son is about to leave for college and he is just a little to excited for me! LOL but there is a buzz of new things going on in my house

my kids are off for another 2 weeks yet (They dont go back til after labour day and dont get out til the end of june) and they are excited about going back because they are bored! by this time of the summer, they dont know what to do with themselves (i think they miss the structure of school). as for me, i like them home and will miss them when they go back.

Lovely picture of Noah:0) My 6 yr old doesn't start school till Sept 2nd and will be in 1st grade. He is looking forward to seeing his friends again and having time away from mommy LOL I'm looking forward to him starting school so I can have some time to myself for a bit.

My 8 year old grandaughter is ready to go back to school she is so board at home and she misses all her friends.My 11 year old grandson on the other hand is dreading the thought of going back, he is loving playing outside all day..Mom is ready,LOL

Our daughters are already grown and married but my Granddaughter called today and she will be starting kindergarten tomorrow and she is so excited. She also just signed up for dance class and had her first lesson today and she loved that. So it is looking like a good week for her.

We start on Wednesday. My daughter starts Kindergarten. She is excited. I am excited for her. I think I will be sad too. I am anxious and trying not to pass it along to her. I had a vision in my mind what it might be like and after the orientation, it wasn't at all what I imagined. It took me a day to get over that!

My 8 year old is the only one going to school this year. He is starting 3rd grade. He starts back on the 14th. He is excited about going back to school. I think mainly because he has been cooped up in the house with his sister and I all summer. Time to go hang with kids his own age.

school hasn't started her yet it will sept 2nd. i only have 1 child going to school and shes excited to get back. i'll be happy shes back in school, there will be less fighting between her and her 3yr old brother lol. i want her to have fun but learn lots too. i know they are there to learn but i think its important to have some fun, i don't want her getting bored at school or discouraged from continuing on right to the end.

My daughter doesn't think about school yet, school starts in septembre again. I'll be glad when school starts again but it will also mean that the summer is all most over and that's one thing don't like.

Here in the Philippines, school does not start in September but in june. While my daughter is already a college graduate and in fact has recently passed the board exams for nurses, I can remember when she was still in grade school and the excitement and yes the tension of first day of school in the earlier grades.But in the higher grades, she was excited and looked forward to meeting her friends again and making new friends and so could not wait to leave for school on the first school day of the year. Of course, learning and knowledge or education for short is the first thing i wanted her to get out of school but i also wanted her to learn how to socialize and deal with other people, make a lot of friends and know how to hold her own in the world out there.

i have 1 whos 9 and going into the 4th grade and she is so excited to go back and be with all her friends agains..summer wasnt much fun this year because of prices but she did get some of what she wanted..im looking forward to her going back to school to start learning something new..they go stagnit when summer comes and then its a rush to get things done..school shopping not liking im not one for shopping but the fashion thing is still on..why?? a good education is my main concerse with my kids without it where would you be?? what would you do?? how would you live?? everyday questions i try to tell my kids when they say they hate school after halh of the year is over with..its kinda funny and i find myself laughing now,but education is not a joking matter..so let them be themselves,express and be there. ty for this oppertunitty to express how i feel and the kind of things i was wondering about myself..good A+++

My son is starting kindergarten this year and he is nervous. He keeps telling me he is scared lol. When we went to the orientation for the school he was the only child who cried. he got over it tho when he rode the bus for the first time. Im hoping he isnt a bag of nerves when he starts, hopefully he will have a good first day.

I don't have a kid. I'm going to High School and i'm excited!

I have four girls in school. The youngest was in preschool last year but it got out really early. So she did not get to really understand it. Monday was their first day back. My youngest was the first one up and dressed. She was brushing her hair before her three sister could even get ready for school. They all was so excited, because they started a new school this year. We moved and they to begin with did not want to go to a new school nor move. Now that school has started and they have made new friends and the twins are in the same class. They all are loving school. I just want them to learn and grow. As long as they get the most out of school is all I care about. I also work for the school they go to. I work doing all the fundraising organization for them from home. So the kids are really enjoying this.. Happy MyLotting and Posting!!
