Sending Your Child Off for the First Day of School

tactile care "mom and dad love you"

My son, who is deafblind, is starting his first day of Kindergarten today! I made braille notes to put in his lunchbox at school.

lunch box with braille and text "we are proud of you! from mom and dad"

I put tactile "stuff' on each card as well, with stars, hearts and buttons for him to feel.  The cards say:

  • We are proud of you.  From Mom and Dad
  • We love you!  From Mom and Dad
  • You are a good boy!  From Mom
  • Mom loves you
  • Mom and Dad love you
  • Have fun at school
  • Have a good day
