🍎Welcome to our Back to School Edition of the Macaroni KID New Iberia weekly newsletter! 🍎
We were back in the studio this week with Alex Worstell crafting up the fun as the kiddos get ready to head back to school. Find out how to create Senior Boxes for the upcoming school year. Your kids will enjoy making these memory boxes to save cherished memories from this school year. These memory boxes are special to me because I will have two seniors this year. 😪😥 However, you can create these memory boxes for children in any grade! Be sure to get our latest printable to capture the special moments on the first day of school. It's the perfect addition to your memory box.
Can you speak teen? I have two and I struggle with the teen jargon these days. Check out this fun quiz we released this week to see if you're cool or clueless. 😁
We have some great suggestions for you this week for lunch boxes and after-school snacking for the upcoming school year. What To Pack? 8 Parent-Approved Lunchbox & Afterschool Snack Picks are kid-tested and parent-approved ideas for your child's lunch this year.
As we wrap up July we still have a few national days and fun days to recognize this month. In Celebrate Chicken Wing Day with Freebies and a Tasty Recipe we have a couple of ideas to recognize National Chicken Wing Day next week on July 29th.
Now, on to our weekly recommendations for your free or low-cost family fun this week from New Iberia to Morgan City:
