My coworker's school just did the coolest thing.

I'm working at home, of course. We're doing training and in chat, my co-worker said that the faculty of their school organized a parade for the children currently being home-schooled.

The teachers and staff decorated their cars and are riding through the neighborhood past the students' homes honking horns, playing music and holding up signs saying they love and miss them.

What a great way to make contact but still maintain social distancing for kids who haven't seen their teachers in a while!

1. Are you in NC?

You don't have to answer, but something similar just happened where I am.

Something so heartwarming just happened here!

4. there is an Indianapolis neighborhood doing a bear hunt.

Homeowners put bears in their windows, on porch, or on the property and smaller kids love to go a walk with their parents for a Bear Hunt !

5. Unfortunately, a group of teachers did that here (NY) and they were not

practicing good social distancing while getting their parade set up. My husband (a retired teacher) and I watched from our living room window as 6 decorated cars pulled up along the roadside and the women (1 or 2 per car) were getting out, going to each others cars, taking selfies with each other, and generally congregating while waiting for a 7th car to arrive. The woman in the 7th car got out and went to greet the other women before they all set off for their car parade. [sigh]

6. Thank you to all teachers for what you do every "normal" day.

They are putting themselves at risk just to get a smile out of their kids.

7. Are you near Richmond, VA? Our local elementary teachers just did the very same thing

in our neighborhood at 3 PM today! All of the kids in the neighborhood made signs and held balloons to welcome them.

There were about 50 decorated cars and whole bunches of spectators!
