This is a great way to get the kids to help organize their rooms and mentally start prepping. I also find that when the kids help put things away and are a part of the organization process, they are less likely to ask for help finding things. Here are some things you can do around the house to prep for Post- Holiday Break Back to School! 💕 💕 Clothes: uniforms or not, help the kids lay out their week of clothing, prep for any dress-up or spirit days ahead. 💕 Shoes: Wash and organize the kids school and sport shoes so they are ready to go. I like to have a place where the kids put their shoes and backpacks 💕 Backpacks: clean them out and restock what they might need. I like to refresh their pens and pencils, help them reorganize their binders. To help with clutter, we usually have a place where the kids put their backpacks to cut down on lost items. 💕 Water bottles: cleaned and ready. Locate all the parts to their water bottles, they always seems to be all over the place. 💕 Bento boxes or snack baggies: Make sure the bento boxes are in good condition and all the parts are there. Donate ones that we don’t use anymore. 💕 Lunch box/ bag: Get these cleaned and ready. I always keep them in one place so they are easy to grab. 💕 Meal Prep: creating a meal plan and prepping the refrigerator can cut down on extra work when things are chaotic. I like to plan for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and then stage the items needed for this in my refrigerator. It takes the guess work out and I always have what I need. 💕 Family Calendar: Having a dental calendar or important dates book helps keep everyone on the same page. As the kids come home from their first day back, help them add their assignments and projects to the family calendar. That way we can help them stay on track and avoid procrastination. 💕 Morning and Night Routine: Replace the kids toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss as needed, also make sure they have all the hygienic supplies to wash their face, use lotion and deodorant as needed. 💕 Homework station: We keep a basket of homework supplies that I like to restock as needed. This consists of lined and white paper, pens, pencils, highlighters, ruler, crayons and coloring markers. Wishing you all a healthy and happy back to school season! It will be summer prep before you know it!
