[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, babysitting is a huge help. Our PTA has babysitting and pizza, and the meetings are only 1 hour, very strict.[/quote] start with things like "Library night" where each kid gets a free book, there's pizza and babysitting for little kids. Add in 10 minutes of business and so on. Everyone is crazy over LAMB these days but in the early years we had a very big fail with our initial PTA-- we spent months trying to figure out whether it was a PTA or PTO and what the mission would be. It collapsed from sheer exhaustion. So just something very small and targeted, then expand to one fundraiser (spaghetti night or pancake breakfast!). Go slow, make it easy and fun. [/quote]
