Have fun!!
We do the surveys, make school shirts, take pictures, get new supplies, go out for lunch, etc. You can read about our first day this year here.
Happy Homeschooling! Hope you have a great first day and a blessed year!

I checked out your blog, it is so cute! You have a lot of ideas that I think I'll use. I especially love the survey idea.
Thanks too for the other suggestions everyone posted. I like the ideas of a nature walk, going on a picnic, baking their favorite cookies. I'm getting excited myself!
