Back to school steps for success

The transition back to school can be a challenge for many kids and families. Here are some simple pointers to help make it a smooth transition.
  • Focus on the fun aspects of starting a new school year- seeing old friends, making new friends, learning new fun stuff. 
  • Avoid saying things that make your child worry or feel guilty like "I wonder if your teacher will be nice,"  "I wonder how hard your work will be this year," or "I'm going to miss you so much."
  • Get back onto the school schedule at home with bed time and wake up time a couple weeks ahead of time. A steady sleep schedule and routine sets your child up for success.
  • Reconnect with school friends. Set up some play dates with kids
  • Get Excited! If you are excited instead of worries your child will pick up on that positive energy and be excited about starting school too.
