Re: Need help changing from prek to all day prek/kinder

[Guest guest]

Rhonda,It sounds like you'll be making a lot of changes at once:11am No DoraRiding the Bus/No Mommy Pickup(Yes, 2 is a lot!)Is there any way you can stagger these changes? Maybe get her used to watching Dora later in the day? You could have her help you tape it while she watches at 11am and then let her watch it a second time later in the day - then maybe after a few weeks have her help you start taping it but then go do something else she likes while it records and have her watch it later?

As for lunches: the first thing that comes to mind is PB & J. Nice and easy and egg/dairy free (as long as you have the right bread). Other sandwich ideas could include deli meats sans cheese. Breakfast is a little more difficult: You could also make pancakes and other dairy free recipes at home using egg replacers like flax seed gel. I'm a big fan of dehydrated pancakes for quick on the go things - just dry them in the oven set on warm and they're almost like a cross between crackers and cookies. You might also be able to find some dairy & egg free breakfast bars at your local health food store.
