The school pick up line can be brutal. Some pick up lines are better than others, but I can tell by the posts that appear from friends in my social media feeds that the school pick up line is still a source of contention, even this far into the school year. The school pick up line conundrum is real. Do I show up extremely early to get a good spot in line or do I arrive a few minutes late and wind up in the back of the line (but maybe with a shorter wait time)? I don’t think there’s a correct answer, and there is no way to completely eliminate waiting in the school pick up line for parents of car riders. Instead, we can only find ways to pass the time.
#1 Download a new game. Pyramid Solitaire by MobilityWare is a fun, simple, and easy game to play. It’s a nostalgic game for passing the time in the car pick up line. Clear the pyramid by matching up pairs of games that equal 13. Each game only takes a few minutes, making it great for on-the-go. Download it on the App Store or get it on Google Play.
#2 Menu Plan. Menu planning can make dinner time for the entire week go easier. Within a few minutes of waiting in the car pick up line, I can have my menu plan done for the entire week.
#3 Read a new book. I always have a book list of items that I would like to read but never have the time. The car pick up line is the perfect time to break one of those books out and go through it.
#4 Schedule any necessary appointments. I’m terrible at making appointments during the day, and then remember about the time I’m headed out the door to pick up the kids. I can use the car pick up line to make any necessary appointments for myself or my kids.
#5 Journal. Journal about your day, your thoughts, or anything that you want!
