Proper communication is one of the keys to getting the most out of carpooling. Make sure that you have everyone's contact information. Everyone should also agree on a schedule that works for everyone. Additionally, there should be a plan in place that can be used if someone cannot pick up the kids. Small children are required to sit in carseats. Make sure that every child has a car seat. You may want to have extra car seats.
It is a good idea to have snacks because children are often hungry when they are going to school and when they are coming home. However, you should ask if the children have any allergies before you provide anyone with snacks. Additionally, it is a good idea to limit the number of people in the car at one time.
