12 Back to School Traditions That Your Kids Will Love

Well, it is that time of year again when if you bring up the ‘A’ word to any teacher then you will be shunned.  August means back to school time and while most teachers avoid that thought like the plague, the moms are over here counting down the days.  Personally, I long for the routine that comes with the back to school time and sad at the same time that another summer has passed by.  The last few days of summer are usually crammed full of our last minute summer bucket list items.  You know we only get 18 summers with our kids…cue the crying!

Life is busy, life is messy and thus we don’t take the time to do the rituals that we have always done.  Over time those traditions can fade away.  How do you avoid that from happening?  How do you keep your family closely bonded?  By being intentional!
