October 1 is National Walk to School Day. If the wind chill doesn't feel like 30's tomorrow like it did early this am we will join in as well.

Thats funny, everyday here is National Walk to School Day at least in my household!

Some of the schools even have walking school busses

LOL,i need to enforce that with my kids. I give them a ride in the morning but they walk home in the afternoon.

Mine are still young, I walk with them. Someday they will go it alone to school!

Well, that would be nice, but it takes me 20 minutes by freeway to ds's school!

I wish my dd could walk to school. We live 6 miles away from her school plus we have to cross at a dangerous intersection at a busy highway, so unless we move closer to her school I doubt she'll ever get to walk there.

They built a new 25 million dollar school 1/4 mile away from us for grades 4 and 5 a few years ago. The school is off of a main street (busy, but not that busy) and the street has no sidewalks, even though there is PLENTY of room for them (we're on the main street). Technically, there are supposed to be no walkers to the school. I think it's the dumbest think I've ever heard. I can't wait until they try to charge for bussing here and people scream because they want their kids to walk to school but there are no sidewalks.
