[quote=Anonymous]Hey Op - It can all be a bit complicated at these ages. 4 is generally at home or a nearby playground with the parents sticking around. By 6 we are usually dropping off. it is not your job to suggest the activity since they invited you but I also wouldn't be afraid to suggest something to move it forward. As we all know, they could have written you with the best of intentions and then gotten busy with kids, work, etc. Clearly by reaching out they want to make it happen. In our school the playdates are usually reciprocal, one parent hosts one week and then another parent the next time. And another tip- in general I think it helps to just be super up front - 'do you prefer we drop off or stick around'? 'What time should I pick them uo', etc. Much better than leaving anything to interpretation. [/quote]
