What do you say to parents at pick up and drop off?

I just started sending out daily reports electronically! The parents get it no later than 5:30pm! I send little reminders as well! I do a general report of our activities and menu to streamline it for all the kids!

I had actually thought of doing something like that and then I keep telling myself don't start something you might regret. If parents were asking for written reports for sure I would be going to something electronic and leaving it up to them to print out if they wanted to.

I do what Skysue said. Every evening I write an email "blog" about our day. All of my families love these emails and I have been thanked many times for them. I don't do it individually for each child as it would take me an hour, but rather it is one email addressed to all families with nothing personal in it. This way parents also get to know the other kids a bit through hearing about them in the emails. I think it makes everyone feel more connected.
