Take Our Daughters & Sons To Work Day

Kids seen on the commute, kids seen running amuk on elevators, kids seen playing nick at workstations, kid voices being heard in hallways, kids seen around on streets at lunch. Such preety faces, such dashing smiles. Corporate environ turning casual. What fun!

Today is "Take Our Daughters & Sons To Work Day", a nationwide event helping girls and boys, age 8 to 13 stay focused on their futures during adolescence. An awesome opportunity for kids to experience a day at the office with their Mom or Dad. Most kids go to their parents workplace on summer Fridays and such, but this is a different kind of event. It exposes kids to what adults do during the work day, shows them the value of their education, and gives them an opportunity to meet new peers, talk to a diverse group of people and share how they envision their future.

We had an agenda for kids to follow today. And I enjoyed this half day event.

A good time spent with kids feels exceptionally rewarding!
