Haha. I know it sounds like a lot of work but I should mention I have a degree in Professional Writing, this is something I enjoy doing. I did up my newsletter for July and it was 4 pages - 2 pages of info, a meal plan for the month and a calender page depicting all the fun things, daycare closings and birthdays. I put in PDF format and send it through email.

On fridays, they will still receive a report card and any "reminders" like daycare closings (I'm closing on July 10th) and needed supplies.

I'm sure I'll get sick of doing it at some point but right now, I really enjoy it

Thanks everyone for your advice. I really am excited about this. And so far, the parents seem to appreciate it. One parent printed out the calender and filled out all the days her kid would be taken out for their vacation so it worked out really well
