5 Helpful Back-to-School Tips for Parents While going back to school can be an exciting time for<br />your kids, it can also cause a stressful transition period. Here are five back-to-school tips<br />for parents to help you set your kids<br />up for success this school year. 1. Make the Mornings a Breeze:<br />Your child’s morning routing sets the tone for the day, <br />so it’s important to make sure they're focused and <br />ready to go. 2. Create a Homework Routine:<br />Getting into "homework mode" after a long<br />day of school can prove difficult for some kids. Make sure they have some down time to relax before diving into homework, as well as a clean, well supplied area to do their work in. 3. Provide All the Right Supplies:<br /><br />In order to make sure your child is prepared for school,<br />pay close attention to their back-to-school supplies lists. For an added bonus, don't be afraid to splurge<br />on a cool notebook or pen that they really want. <br /> 4. Prioritize Their Health:<br />It's important to make sure your child<br />is staying healthy, as their physical health<br />greatly influences their attitude at school. Make sure your child is up to date on all vaccinations and don’t forget to pack them a well-balanced lunch. 5. Make a Calendar:<br />Creating a calendar for homework, field trips and school<br />events will help keep you and your kids organized.
