Paid to be silly

We had our first concert at school last Wednesday. When I say concert it means parents of our kids will come to watch them sing and dance, do fingerplays and say rhymes. They (the parents) are still raving about how cute the kids were and how they enjoyed the show. Well, 3-5 years old kids (the age bracket I'm teaching) can never do wrong. Everything they say or do always earns them a chorus of "ohhhh, she's/he's so cuuuuuute."

Our director jokingly said A should come watch me and my kids next time we "perform." Not a bad idea. A once said I have a great job as I get paid to be silly. So true. Oh the inumerable silly things I do everyday at school to make my kids get into it. Though sometimes I feel like a glorified nanny, preschool teaching is actually a lot of fun. So if you want to join the pack, I'm sure there are a lot of teaching jobs posted here.
