My kinders check out starting in October. They are allowed one book, no
bags. They are allowed to take them home. We "practice" choosing a
book/looking inside/putting them back, reading them, etc. The first time
for REAL checkout, they also color a bookmark with our school mascot and a
little note. I'm attaching my generic one here (it has a book instead of
our mascot). You will have to change the font or download KG Lego House.
Enjoy!

Thanks!
