Monday, September 5, 2022
School is back in full force in our house. And things are trying to get back to our normal routine. I actually thrive on routine and a schedule, but still, there is nothing like waking up an hour earlier and trying to hurry kids to shuffle out the door on time. Our mornings are filled with alarms, lunch packing, last minute paper signing, hair brushing, shoe finding, and scarfing down breakfast as we run out the door. And now that I have one kid in middle school that means a longer school day and another in multiple afterschool activities, so we have had to adjust with some tips to keep the chaos at a minimum. Here are our afterschool hacks for an easier back-to-school transition.

Prepare Your Child for Successful School Trips
Thursday, August 18, 2022
The first school trip might seem daunting. It might make you anxious, as it is the first time you let
your child go on an adventure without yourself. This is good as it helps children become more
independent, make new friends, and learn how to behave in large groups. If the school trip is longer
than a few days, then this is better.
School trips are good for mental health and your kids will surely replenish their energy levels,
especially if they spend time in nature and reconnect with it. Their cognitive abilities and
concentration will be improved, but their physical activity too. Going on school trips is a nice way to
spend less time indoors playing on phones or computers.
However, your kid might be worried and anxious about spending so many days away from home.
Here are a few tips and tricks that will prepare your child for successful school trips.
Back to School Essentials for a Successful Year
Monday, August 1, 2022
It is that time of year and I have been thinking about everything my children will need for back to school. If you are like me, then you like to plan ahead. This year, with inflation at a record high, I have been thinking about the essentials without buying what we don't already have on hand. For example, both of my kids have very nice backpacks that have warranties, so I won't be buying new ones this year. I also have a variety of lunch boxes that they can choose from, so again I won't be buying them new ones. And with our school district no longer providing free lunches county wide, that money is allocated towards our grocery budget. But their feet are ever growing, so new shoes will be on the list.
You can think smart while still sending your children off to a successful school year.

Walking to School: 4 Safety Tips to Teach Your Children
Tuesday, November 17, 2020
Love it or loathe it, the school run is a big part of your child’s day and while it can be a bit of a nightmare getting everyone out of the door on time and not leave anything behind, we somehow manage it 5 days a week.
If you’re a family who is lucky enough to be able to walk to school, then you’re already enjoying the benefits of additional exercise, fresh air and extra time spent together before 9am. However, as a parent, keeping your child safe whilst they’re walking to school isn’t always easy. These days motorists are distracted by phones, social media and even eating their breakfast behind the wheel, which means they may not spot you and your child crossing the road until it’s too late. Speak with a pedestrian accident law firm if you or your child have been injured by a motorist.
Taking Charge of your Child's Education: From Home
Thursday, May 14, 2020
In recent months, more and more of us have had to dip our toe into the complex and complicated world of homeschooling. Now, more than ever, many of us who have taken for granted our public school teachers, college professors and daycare workers, truly understand and appreciate the hard work these professionals have invested in our children. For those of us who were already homeschooling our children, we’re heartened to know that now people truly understand the work and labor involved with educating children of all ages, abilities and talents.
If there’s any silver lining to practicing social-distancing, it’s that more of us have been given the gift of time with the children in our lives, and are able to have a direct hand in their education. For many of us, we’ve never been so hands-on when it came to our children’s daily lessons or homework. This experience is as rewarding as it is difficult.
If you’re still getting into the swing of things when it comes to your child’s remote learning - either because you’re getting used to requirements set forth by social distancing, or if you’re just new to the homeschooling thing and plan to keep doing it permanently - you may be wondering if there are any easy tricks or tips to help ease you and your child into this new situation. Luckily, there are. With educational technology ever on the rise, there are quite a few programs, platforms, apps and resources out there for parents who want to do remote learning at home.
