I got each of them a spiral notebook. Every night, they get into bed 15 minutes before bedtime, then write or draw in their notebooks for a few minutes. My husband or I go in and give them a chance to show us their handiwork. Afterward, we read them a book. As an extra bonus, one of us writes a short message or draws in their notebooks while they're brushing their teeth.
Smooth mornings make for a smooth start to the school day.
The night before Help your children lay out their clothes. Have them pack their backpacks and put them by the door. In the morning Have children get dressed before breakfast. Set out breakfast items so they can help themselves. If they have extra time, encourage them to go over homework or read a favorite book.
