Do you know how hard it is to get your daughter to do homework after school? Have you heard of a kindergarten class that practices writing capital and lower case letters, writing numbers, then using their brains to come up with drawing four pictures with the letter of the day they are working on? Well it all has to be done after school at 3 p.m. Not only does she have to do the above, Maile also has to read three books at her level and then have us read her two books! Okay, now it's 5 p.m. Time to shower, play, eat dinner, etc. But now Maile still has to practice the piano. Her teacher assigned four Christmas songs. One she has to practice five times, one four, one three and, lastly, her recital piece... just one time, thankfully. Leave it to Dale to come up with a fun solution. As you can see above... Maile just loves it! Now doesn't this contraption remind you of what Bompa would have suggested?
