Hi all! Summer is a wonderful, even magical time of year for the kiddos. Long, lazy summer days filled with playing outside all day, swimming, going to the beach and so many more fun things! But as we all know it's already August, and stores are putting out the back to school supplies as fast as possible! I want to help the transition from lazy days to busy days to be as fun, and easy, as possible for you!
1. Host an end-of-summer party or barbeque! Turning this party into an annual tradition would help the kids look forward to school starting, and also who doesn't love a good party??
2. Personalize your child's supplies! Add their name to a water bottle, pencil case, folders. trapper keepers and more with one of these vinyl decals!
3. Talk to your kids. Ask them what has them worried or scared about going back to school.
4. Give them a special treat on the first day of school! Serving up a buffet breakfast or just baking homemade cinnamon rolls, is a tradition on the first day of school is a great and easy way to help them be ready for the new school year. Plus a good breakfast helps them to stay alert and focused in school!
5. Start a school-like routine a week or two before it actually starts. It will help make the adjustment of getting up early instead of sleeping in much easier.
