Getting your kids ready for school in the mornings is
often a huge challenge for parents, especially if there’s more than one child.
The trick is to be organised and allow yourself plenty of time, just in case
there are any hiccups. I have teamed up with an independent school in New York
to offer you some advice on how you can save time and ensure the school run
runs smoothly.
First and foremost, be sure to prepare as much as you
can the night before. Encourage your kids to pack their school bags and lay
their uniform out before bed so that everything is ready in the morning. If
your children eat a packed lunch, you should lead by example and make the
sandwiches etc. the night before too. The more you get done the night before as
a family, the more time you’ll have in the morning. Checklists are great for
ticking everything off and making sure you don’t forget anything.
