Airehead Posted September 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 2, 2021 Do you know any young people just back or getting ready to go back to school? What is the cool stuff this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razors Edge ★ Posted September 2, 2021 Share #2 Posted September 2, 2021 IPad Pros with that pencil thing. Lots of MacBooks - usually like an Air or similar. If just hitting driving age, maybe a 1-series or, for the cool kids, a Model 3? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoseySusan Posted September 2, 2021 Share #3 Posted September 2, 2021 My grandkids have been back for a month. So far, they’ve had to quarantine twice. My step-daughter, who is a teacher, caught covid and has been home for awhile. The youngest is five, turning six later this month, so she missed the kindergarten age cut-off date. But we are helping to afford a Montessori school this year instead of spending the year in child care with a limited curriculum. We’re hoping she will either skip to 1st grade next year, or get a foundation to be stronger as she enters school. The oldest is 15, and she’s learning to drive. We can’t wait to see how that turns out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razors Edge ★ Posted September 2, 2021 Share #7 Posted September 2, 2021 I wonder if unicorns are still "in"? I used to go to Target or Michaels and just but up a bunch of unicorn themed school stuff for my nieces. Maybe now it is narwhals or sloths? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital_photog ★ Posted September 2, 2021 Share #10 Posted September 2, 2021 oldest granddaughter spilled hot ramen noodles on her foot 2 weeks ago after cross country practice. 2nd and small 3rd degree burns over the whole top of her foot. They thought they would be doing skin grafts today but Tuesday it was healing enough that it isn't needed. Dr. said now she may be back running in a couple weeks. For a while we had a very grouchy granddaughter. The report Tuesday cheered her up a lot. from the burn center Quote Some of the more severe and more common burns we see on children are from ramen noodles. The noodles stick to the child's skin and cause an even deeper, more penetrating burn than the liquid.” https://www.ajc.com/news/health-med-fit-science/study-childhood-scald-burns-caused-instant-soup-ramen/hDKCLKvKWB212oL7hiAOOL/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickinMD ★ Posted September 2, 2021 Share #12 Posted September 2, 2021 This is the Saint Philip Neri Catholic School uniform and my nephew Adam's first day of 8th Grade. This is the nephew that's been the banker in Monopoly games since age 5. His mother's a CPA. In state and national tests, he scored in the top 0.1% in Math and top 1% in English and Science and top 2% in Social Studies. When he was playing on an elite all-year baseball team at age 10 and I picked him up after a practice, he asked me how the stock market works. I hope I live long enough to enjoy some of the riches he attains 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted September 2, 2021 Share #15 Posted September 2, 2021 I assume kids these days still like to make sure their notebooks are color matched for classes. Red is always for science. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingstar Posted September 3, 2021 Share #16 Posted September 3, 2021 Clearly my extended family is uncool.... no older teen got a used car. My sibs each have a plot....they each live near transit bus stop or subway. I'm not kiddin'....it's just how it is in my family. I'm certain an iPhone or computer would be the ask from kids... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
