I Know My Phone Number! April 22, 2015 By Bekki 4 Comments This content may contain affiliate links.I Know My Phone Number!! But do my kids? We have been struggling to memorize our new phone numbers together. It is amazing how confusing it can become when you begin to throw out the old numbers and learn the new ones. Our family has four phone numbers that need to be memorized. Phew! That is a lot! I created this fun little foldable to help out our youngest. In the event of an emergency, can you kids simply pick up a phone and call you or your emergency contact? If not, I would recommend that you begin memorizing phone numbers together. (I confess, I JUST memorized my oldest son’s cell number. Since I simply dial by contact on my smart phone I never committed his number to memory. Bad mom.) How do you teach your children important phone numbers? ***Just a final nudge*** My home phone does not work during a power outage. Does yours? We have a back-up phone. you know, one of those plug into the wall types. I would recommend you not only have a back up, but teach your kids how to use it! Do You Have a Minute?

Bekki says May 18, 2015 at 3:07 pm I still know my phone number from when I was a little girl… We just don't memorize things like we used to. This became very apparent to me when I dropped my boys off for a fun class and realized none of them knew our number. I made that packet and began working with them immediately:). Reply
