Flour Baby Requirements

1. The student must turn in this requirement sheet, signed by the student and their parent.

2. The student must show responsibility by exhibiting appropriate behavior and parenting skills at all times.

3. Babies must be within arm’s reach of the parent at all times, unless they are in a nursery setting.

 The students must follow (without argument) the directions of the classroom teacher. If instructed by a teacher to put the baby in a “nursery” there should be NO discussion.

 Babies are NEVER to be left in the locker, cars, or carried in a school backpack.

4. This is a 3 day assignment and abuse can be reported at any time for a grade deduction.

5. These babies are to be treated like “real” babies.

 For example – if you should not shake a real baby, then you should not shake a flour baby.

6. If you do not have your supplies on time you will be required to do a research paper. I understand the Flour Baby requirements and agree to follow them. I realize that my flour baby can be taken up at any time by the teacher and I will be required to write the research paper.
