SKL Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 My kids' 1st grade class is having a "Mother's Day Tea" tomorrow, and I'm dreading it. I don't feel like that teacher celebrates anything I do as a mother (but that's probably just me being paranoid). Of course there will be sugar - joy of joys. Anyhoo, I was just wondering how your kids' school/teacher makes you feel appreciated on Mother's Day. LOL. (I realize this is also teacher appreciation week, and we did do cards for her on Tuesday. I hope I'm not expected to bring a teacher gift with me tomorrow?) I'd rather scrub all the toilets on my street than go to this Mother's Day Tea. Yep, I'm that jaded. ;) But I will do this for my kids, and they will think I am absolutely thrilled. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windmillmarie Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I am supposed to go to a mother's day tea tomorrow too. We already had "muffins for mom" early this week. I am not particularly excited about the tea, but my first grader won't stop talking about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonfirmath Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I've not heard anything about any sort of Mother's Day celebration at our school I saw on facebook that his cousin had a Mother's Day Tea today too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 I lived through it, LOL. They let us take the kids home early afterward. My youngest was seriously bummed that she didn't get to go to late room. Mother's Day weekend is not starting with a bang. :-P Even the weather is nasty. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwik Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 My son bought home a blank card that had been printed and coloured in. I don't think the teachers would be very popular if they had a mothers day tea - most of us are juggling enough balls as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mélie Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 I got a cute craft - a flower made out of construction paper and two Hershey kisses. :) I have a feeling that a "Mother's Day Tea" at our school would have been made up of mostly nannies and grandmothers, but it's a cute idea.
