Every weekday at about 3:00, we pick up Landon (and company ... carpool) from the middle school. We get home and have just 45 minutes or so before it's time to head to the elementary school to pick up the Columbia Kids Carpool ... during those 45 minutes ... Colton takes off. He's usually fairly close, downstairs, or at one of two neighbor's homes ... but trying to locate him quickly so that we can leave has proved problematic (he's always the last place I look!). So I bought him a watch and set the alarm. Every day at 3:55 the watch starts to beep, and Colton knows he is supposed to come find me because it's time to leave. I'm SO happy to report, it's been a couple of weeks since we first bought the watch, and it's working like a charm!
Great idea Jen!
