So they stayed for an hour.<br /> It was really nice! Turns out the mom and I are in similar industries.i </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299696 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 16:00:46 +0000 mrsjazz 2299696@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We hope to have a play date or two soon. My LO hit it off with a friend on day 1 and her mom mentioned getting them together one day. LO tells me which friends she wants to have play dates with, it's pretty funny. She wants to have play dates with her teachers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299691 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:54:11 +0000 regberadaisy 2299691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both work out of the home full time as do every other parent at daycare. DD1 talks about her friends a ton but she's also been with them since she was 7 weeks old! On the weekends we are busy with house stuff and doing family stuff. She's 3.5 now and I can see it happening more in kindergarten and maaaaaybe at 4?</p> <p>@MamaBehr: aw *puffy heart* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299675 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:40:33 +0000 lilyann 2299675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have met up with friends from daycare a couple of times for DS1 (he is almost 3). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299670 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:38:57 +0000 MamaBehr 2299670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't really had our kids in preschool/daycare, but my oldest just started kindergarten and is at a playdate from school right now! Her friend lives three houses down, so it isn't a HUGE deal, but still! And, I'm not there. It is one of her first playdates without me there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299664 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:36:44 +0000 chopsuey 2299664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't had any school friend play dates yet. Most of the kids at school have WOHPs and get picked up after work on school days. Weekends we usually do family stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-do-play-dates-with-school-friends-start#post-2299656 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 15:33:43 +0000 Bao 2299656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just curious when your LO started having play dates with friends from school. If it starts in preschool or more when they are old enough to say they want their friend over/to go to their friends house. LO doesn't talk about her friends much outside of school yet but maybe that's because she's only 3. </p>
