As sad as it makes me to think about the summer coming to an end, I thought it would be fun to do a back to school countdown with the boys. When I saw these adorable jars at the dollar store, I knew I had to use them. Aren't the bright colorful lids fun?
All three boys got a jar, and each boy counted out a "Smartie" for every day until their "big event". My oldest is counting down to the first day of school, my middle son is counting down to the first day of preschool, and my youngest (as not to be left out) is counting down to some "mommy and me alone time". :-)
Didn't they turn out cute???? Do you have any "back to school" traditions in your house?
