Ready to School on time Tips for Parents

Getting their children ready for school is a big challenge for many parents. To prevent those stressful mornings, here are five tips to get your child ready for school on time.

Tip1: Establish a bedtime routine

Have a set time your child goes to bed and wakes up. Now you need to ensure your child is getting enough sleep.Pupils in pre-primary need around 12 hours of sleep and pupils in primary school need anywhere between 10-11 hours of sleep. So if you have a 3-year-old child and if they need to be awake by 7am they should be in bed by 7pm.

Tip2: Use a hanging shelf

Before the week begins, put a week's worth of school uniform into a hanging shelf. Each shelf is designated for a day in a week. Check the school diary so you know which day is PE and place their sports uniform on the appropriate shelf. This will save time in the morning and avoid any hassles.

Tip3: Have a food plan

Know in advance exactly what you’re going to make for breakfast and pack for school lunch.
Creating a breakfast and lunch menu works well. If you want to be even more efficient in the kitchen there are plenty of helpful tips and articles online.

Tip4: Remove all distractions

Make sure the TV is off and there are no toys around to prevent your child from being distracted
especially during breakfast.

Tip5: School Bag should be packed the night before

Have your child pack their school bag and leave it by the front door the night before. It will be one less thing for them to do in the morning and it is a great way to teach them to be responsible and organized. If you feel it will save even more time have your child leave their school shoes by the front door also. It's funny how shoes always go missing in the mornings.

So there you have it, parents. Follow these tips to make your child Up, Dressed, Fed and Out
the door ON TIME Every day.
