So I got a letter when we first started with the room moms name and phone number and the list of parties and to let them know if you'd like to help. There is a party on the 20th for Easter. I called three weeks ago asking to help and telling them to please let me know if there's anything I can do. They didn't know and told me they would get back to me. I got a letter today (everyone did) about how they have decided to do happy meals because it worked so well last time (I guess they did this before for another party) and to please let them know if you prefer your child have apples . I don't understand why they wouldn't just get the kids apples. I also don't understand why they are getting happy meals. The handbook talked about sending in a healthy lunch, I get that it is a party, but if you're going to be the room mom and be lazy about the party, atleast feed all of the kids apples, not make it something you need to request. I was looking forward to helping but there's nothing to do! She asked for each child to bring in 7.00 for the food and a craft.

 I would have a huge problem with feeding my child that poison. Anyway I seriously would do up a nice fruit or veggie tray and bring it in for the party. Wow for 7 bucks per child you could have some really nice decent food for the kids. I don't understand the room mother title, but for the next party maybe instead of asking what you could do you could suggest that you could help organize a pot luck. This is what we do at my son's preschool for the 2 parties a year they have (winter party and end of year party) parents sign up under specific headings (appetizer, main, sandwiches, dessert, drinks) to bring a family sized amount. It works out really great as there are some parents who bring yummy healthy homemade foods and some that go the easy rote and bring some timbits, store made cookies, etc. the day of the party however there are many healthy choices to make that DS hardly notices the crappy food :)
