It's about 20 to 25 minutes by bike to the lovely kindergarten. The latest time i'm supposed to be there is at about 9:00, which i rarely manage.

Here is the historic timeline of the arrival times, starting at 2021-06-29, where i'm recording the arrival at the front door.

I do not know about the kindergarten arrival politics in other countries but in Germany, coming late is usually sanctioned with unfriendly blaming, to say the least. Our kindergarten is quite different. I never got blustered at but occasionally i'm informed that it would be good for the kid to arrive not later than 9 o'clock so she can join the different activities which start then.

The tag overslept in the table means that either my kid or myself slept too long and we would arrive far too late, potentially just before the midday sleep.

The tag skived means various things, voluntary or involuntary. I do not want to record an illness history so it basically just means that we did not go to kindergarten without having overslept.

There's another 3 years of kindergarten ahead before we actually have to check-in at school before 8 o'clock. It seems not a big deal for most people but i'm already scared!
