Between back-to-school jitters and the brutal morning rush, beginning a new school year is nerve-wracking not only for children but also for their parents. How can parents help their kids keep their heads above the water while still keeping their anxieties under control?

We have turned to our many years of experience to bring you this short Back-to-School Guide. Read on for tips and best practices on preparing your children for going back to school.

PREPPING FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL

Making the transition from a stress-free, relaxing summer to a full day of learning is no easy feat. While it may seem arduous, having it all under control is doable. So, how do you as a parent set your children up for an easy start? Here are some handy tips:

Get Back to Your Bedtime Routine

Getting your children back to their bedtime routine can be difficult and sometimes infuriating, but it’s vital to do

before

the transition back to school. We recommend that you set your alarm back to your school-time wake up a week or so before school starts. It might be tempting to lie down on the couch once you are awake but do your best to avoid the temptation. Instead, consider going through a mock school morning routine to smooth out the kinks and get your blood moving. This way, your children are psychologically and mentally prepared for the school morning routine when the time comes.

We also recommend that you establish a bedtime bed routine that includes activities such as brushing teeth, showering, packing backpacks, and picking the next day’s outfit. Make your bedtime routines as fun, interactive, and

sustainable

as possible.

Talk About It

Communication is key! Create a safe space that allows your kids to communicate their feelings about going back to school with you easily. Tell them how you felt about school as a child and validate their feelings once they communicate their fears with you.

We Cannot Stress This Enough: A Useful Read Goes a Long Way

Reading this short post is a step in the right direction! A deeper dive into the web can also introduce you to articles and documented research that helps you keep the Back-to-School jitters at bay. Do you know who else can help? Friends with children the same age as yours. Don’t be afraid to ask those around you for help and advice.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL LUNCH AND SNACKS

Do you know that a student’s eating habits directly impact their attention span and retention in school? Do you know that more healthy lunches end up in the dumpster than unhealthy lunches? Of course you do!

The battle to have children eat healthier food options is one many parents across America are losing daily, but here are tips to help your child fuel their body the right way:

Get creative by experimenting with colors and shapes. People of all ages are attracted to a variety of colors, and there are actual scientific studies done on the benefits of “eating a rainbowâ€� of fruits and vegetables each day to improve the nutritional quality of each meal.

Let your child help pack their own lunch. Get your child excited for their school lunch by making it with them. This way, you can introduce healthy food options to them and let them choose which they prefer the night before.

Finally, lead by example. Normalize healthy habits in your home by letting your child see you cooking and eating a variety of nutritious foods.
