About book The Day My Mom Came To Kindergarten (2013)
This is the story of a little girl’s mom who comes to Kindergarten with her one day. She has trouble following all of the rules, and her daughter becomes very embarrassed by her actions. By the end of the day, mom is doing what she is told, but declines when she is invited to return. The text is meant for older children. There isn’t a clever end like I was expecting, which was disappointing. The story just made the mom look like she didn’t have a life and wanted to stay with her daughter all of the time. The Day My Mom Came to Kindergarten by Maureen Fergus* I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*Everyone thought it would be fun for mom to spend a day at school with her little one but no one guessed that she would have a hard time fitting in. Mom had trouble following the rules and remembering to stay in line and use her indoor voice. With the help of her little kindergartener, she figured it out and they had a great day.This was a fun book for parents and children to share, especially if you have a child getting ready for school. They have rules to follow as part of their daily routines and not everyone gets it right all the time. Everyone makes mistakes and you have to learn from them to move forward. It also give the parents and children the opportunity to talk about some of the things the children will be doing in kindergarten.Overall Lilly enjoyed this book and thought it was a lot of fun to read. We have talked about all the fun things she will get to do when she starts school but have also talked about her putting on her listening ears and minding her teachers. We give The Day My Mom Came to Kindergarten 4 stars.

Poor mom. She just wants to have some fun to make up for her boring workday life.

Maybe Mom needs to read some Robert Fulghum.
