School Classroom Parties 101
by Chris Yates

In the past several years I've volunteered to help in my children's classrooms in a lot of different capacities. To me, being a room mother is the most challenging and stressful volunteer positions I've held.

Room mothers are usually responsible for planning and hosting holiday parties for the class. Unfortunately, teachers often don't provide much information or guidance, and children have high hopes for a fun party.

Here's what I've learned over the years to make it the most fun for everyone involved.

Know What To Ask The Teacher

Okay, you've volunteered to be a room mother... now what?

You've got to ask questions. I usually send in a note with the following questions, but you could also call the teacher and ask.

- What is the room mother responsible for?

- Are there other parent volunteers?

- How many parties will there be?

- When will they take place?

- Are the parties for the holidays or are they
