• Snack Smart: Opt for healthy snacks like yogurts, crispy flat bread, dips or fruit instead of sugary, highly processed option.

• Check-Ins: Ask your child how they’re feeling about returning to school.
• Mindfulness: Practice deep breathing or simple meditation together to reduce stress.

5. Organize and Prepare

Being organized reduces stress and ensures smoother mornings:

• School Supplies: Stock up on essentials like notebooks, pencils, and backpacks at least 1 week before school goes back.
• Calendar Management: dedicate wither an online or physical calendar so you’re able to Mark important dates like school orientations or parent-teacher meetings and display it in an area where it can be seen and used as a reminder for all of the family.
• Clothing Prep: Lay out clothes the night before to save time in the morning.

6. Stay Healthy

The classroom is a shared space, making it essential to focus on hygiene and immunity:

• Personal Hygiene: Teach kids to wash their hands after using the rest room, before and after handling food, using towellettes for wiping face and hands after eating and being mindful of wiping feet before entering into the house and class room.
