[blparent] school

[sharon howerton]

Kim,
Could you possibly do a Braile booth? The kids usually have fun seeing their 
names in Braille, you can get Braille book marks and might find another way 
to meet more parents. I did a presentation at a preschool once, and the 
teacher who was a friend of mine had the kids do their names in Braille 
using beans and I had to read them. So perhaps there could be a way for them 
to do their own names with something like that. Good luck, and I'm glad you 
are involved with the school. It's so important; I did it, too, when my sons 
were young-school board, Scout leader, whatever it took. To this day many 
years later I still know a lot of the people.
Sharon
