School starts for us next week and I wanted to make something for those of us with younger kids. If you are tired of your kid answering “fine” when you ask about their day, then hopefully these school notes will help them to open up a bit more!
My son is not a talker when it comes to things that happen at school, but if you ask him about some kind of video game, he won’t stop talking. Typical boy I think. I designed these notes to try to get him to tell me more about his day.
Now that his little sister is also going to school, I’m sure I’ll learn more about what’s happening at school. She doesn’t need ANY prompting to talk about her day. ha!
Look at the genius idea a reader came up with for her kids! Athena spray painted frames, inserted the school notes and is using a dry erase marker each day. Thanks for sending this to me Athena, I love this idea.

This will work in a glossy sheet protector too. Dry Erase works great. I do this with my menu plan.

This is so cute! I love the little faces off to the side of the page. It is a good idea to getting kids to talk more about their day. I also usually get the “it was okay” response from them. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this great printable! I printed off several copies to have my son complete throughout the year. He isn’t big on telling me all about his day most of the time so I hope this will be a great activity to get some info out of him

I love these printables and already know what I am going to do with my kids. Once I create it – I will share it. If you don’t mind I will also share the final project on my site (referencing your post/site of course). Thanks so much.
