I have yet to experience this magical moment of seeing your first born off to school but for those who are experiencing this for the first time or its a reoccurring experience here is some information I've gathered to make this time a little less hectic than usual.
Tampa Bay Parenting Magazine The 4th Annual Back To School Fair
Saturday August 13th 9AM-4PM
"After a summer of relaxation it’s going to be tough to shake off the laid-back lifestyle and get back into super parent mode.
Luckily for parents all over the Tampa Bay area, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. on August 13, will be just what you need to get back into the swing of things! The Back To School Fair is a day to prepare, protect, educate and inspire children for the upcoming school year!
This annual event will feature live entertainment, informational speaker sessions, karaoke, games, arts & crafts, face painting, balloon artist, workshops and a whole bunch of fun! The 2011 event will take place inside the new, state of the art Glazer Children’s Museum located at 110 West Gasparilla Plaza, in downtown Tampa. Fair goers will be able to enjoy the entire museum and fair for only $5 per person and the first 150 kids will also receive a tote bag filled with Back to School supplies and other goodies. Museum Members are free!"
