{ Good for Mom's, Dad's and Kid's }
‘Twas was the night before school started, but at places in town,
some families weren't affected; they didn’t frown.
The kids understood they wouldn’t be trapped;
their homeschooling direction was already mapped.
New projects, new field trips, old friends and new--
hour after hour their excitement grew.
The parents said gently, let’s go to bed.
We have plenty of adventures that surely lie ahead.
HERE IS THE PUBLIC SCHOOL VERSION
Twas was the night before school started, when all through the town,
the parents were cheering... It was a riotous sound! By 8, kids were
washed and tucked into bed... Where memories of homework filled them
with dread! New pencils, new folders, new notebooks too! New teachers,
new friends...Their anxiety grew! The parents just giggled when they
learned of this fright- and shouted upstairs: Go To Bed! It's A School
Night!!
