DS is in Kindergarten and he takes the bus every day, he loves it and we have an awesome bus driver! Occasionally if there's a delay I have to drive DD to preschool before he goes and then I have to drive him to school because he misses the bus and he HATES it!

I think riding the bus is a great experience and a place where you meet kids who live near you and you can learn to deal with situations that you wouldn't have in school. I say that because we have a good bus though, a friend has a TERRIBLE bus driver and out of control kids so if I had that I might change my attutude.
