Fall may not be in the air yet but summer is certainly coming to a close for children all over the US.  Now is a great time to be at Family Fun Friday as we’ve gathered together some great back to school organization strategies, tips on parent/teacher communication, crafty DIY supplies, and some healthy after school snack ideas. For our home school readers, we have encouragement for new homeschoolers, scheduling and time management tips, as well as curriculum advice. If you want to plan a healthier breakfast, find quick snacking solutions, and pack a better lunch box we have that too.
