WRAPPING UP
PARENT ENGAGEMENT
March is here and with March comes March Madness. What is March Madness and how can we apply that at home with our children? Well here it is, March madness is a tournament time for men and women’s basketball to compete and move up in brackets until one team walks away as the winner. It is madness because of the excitement of it all. We can apply this at home by creating brackets of our own but instead of competing with each other, how about we work as a team to get things done? Whether it is the household chores, maybe it is a family activity, maybe it is helping a neighbor. I challenge you to pick an activity, as a family, for each week in March for you to do with your family, and you CANNOT move up in the bracket until you have completed all of the four challenges. Take a picture of the list you create and as you complete each activity take a picture and tag The Mix in your post with the hashtag #MIXMADNESS. All of the families that complete their brackets will be entered in a raffle. Good luck and have fun in the madness!
