This contest could not have come at a better time. I do have a list of things I plan to do to streamline our mornings, but I really could use some more tips!
My Tips for Streamlining Mornings During the School Year:
- Help your children pick out their clothes and lay them out the night before, including matching socks.
- Make sure all homework and anything else that needs to go to school are already in their school bags.
- Take the empty lunch bag from your child when they come home from school, repack it immediately with the following day's lunch, and put it in the fridge.
- Leave the school bag unzipped to remind you that you need to put the lunch or snack in there the next morning.
- Leave the drinkware, flatware, and dishes needed for breakfast out on the counter the night before.
- Serve your children something for breakfast that is nutritious, but can be prepared easily and quickly, like the new Eggo Real Fruit Pizzas. They offer your child a hot breakfast with just 1-minute in the microwave.
- Serve your child something you know they will like to eat to avoid a battle at breakfast. Save the experimenting for the weekends.
