Get on a schedule and STICK to it!
I match up outfirts including socks shoes everything the night before
I home school my 4 so our school is year round but we have found that planning ahead works best.If we are having a great day they like to do some of the next days work so that they have more fre time later in the week.
Because my kids do not wake up in the best of moods, I make sure everything is done the night before. Backpacks, clothes laid out, lunches all made ahead of time make for an easier morning.
Have a regular routine and a treat when they get home that they can look forward to.
I have all my boys stuff ready to go in the morning. Clothes laid out, backpacks ready, and shoes by the front door.
We ease back into a schedule of going to bed earlier and getting up early a couple of weeks before school starts.

Organization! Getting as much done the night before means less stress in the morning.
I label *everything*
I tried color coding notebooks (green for science, red for math, etc.), but the kids take some time to get used to it. Now, I put a funky sticker on each notebook with their name, the class & even what period they need it so they can do a quick locker change or pull it out of their backpack without fumbling.
I also never give my kids all of their pens/pencils at once. I have a drawer that I keep the extras in, otherwise they lose them & I have to buy more.
have kids help make their lunches
I think it’s a good idea to prepare their needed items for the next day. I also think it’s nice to have their input on what they would like for lunch.
Getting a good night of sleep and a filling meal helps.
with my kids ive always gotten clothing out for the next morning,back packs ready,ect..that way all we have to do is eat,get ready and go
buy things they like for breakfast so we do not have to struggle figuring out what to eat
We bathe and lay out every ones clothes for the next day, pack lunches, set the table for breakfast and place bookbags with finished homework, shoes and jackets by the front door of a night so that the morning runs smoother.

get everything prepped the night before
I make the kids have their backpacks ready every evening for the next day…the same goes with the clothes that they are planning on wearing
My best tip is just to get in a routine and stick to it.
We start transitioning to school schedules a couple weeks before school starts.
Start the transition early of getting up and developing the routine. Also have them join a summer reading program.
Do all the preparation the night before, so your ready to go in the morning!
Get everything ready the night before.
Get lots of sleep
Plan as much the night before as you can.
A good night sleep for the kids always makes the mornings easier.

Find what your child likes that is healthy and make that their lunch, even if you have to send the same thing everyday.

We home school so my back to schoop tip is a bit different from most. I would say a tip for home schooling families is right before school starts make sure you have all your books an a outline of the school year.
Well, I homeschool all 3 of my kids but when they did go to public school (and actually even now), I bought all of their school clothes through the year prior. Whenever I saw a really great sale or something on clearance in the next size up, I’d grab it & stick it in my closet for next year 🙂
We wake up a little earlier in the morning so he has time to wake up and enjoy his morning. We found that when we were rushed in the morning, he seemed to have a tough day at preschool!
Prepare as much as you can the night before.
Set a routine and start getting them to bed earlier before school starts and a week or two before school start going over school studies to get them in the habit of studying and homework.

I always try to make sure the kids got plenty of sleep and I always gave them a good breakfast before they went off to school. You can’t study on an empty tummy.
I know during summer every one gets on a different sleeping schedule. So around 2weeks before school starts I start up the school sleeping schedule to get them ready.
Have a schedule, stay on a routine of some sort and it’ll make it easier for everyone involved.
Put the child’s name on his belongings.
My tip is to keep an agenda with notes and important dates.
lay out outfits and pack lunches the night before.
My tip is to get important things done the night before like lunches, all homework and picking outfits out so you aren’t flustered and rushing in the morning and have time for a proper breakfast.
Do anything you can to make it easier on the little ones for the first month or so. They are overwhelmed and really tired for the first little bit. You can get their clothes for them or not give them chores so that they can get to bed early.
Always make time for breakfast!
We always get our clothes, school assignments/ papers to be signed, ready the night before. We have a bedtime story then off to sleep.
I always plan ahead what the kids will wear so there’s not debate in morning. I also make sure all homework is done as soon as they get home so it’s not hanging over them the rest of the evening. Having a planner is a good idea too, especially once they hit middle school.
Get as much as you can done the night before so the morning is less stressful.

Lay everything out the night before so that the mornings are hassle free.
healthy breakfast before school and a kiss and hug for a good day
I think an organized space for kids to do their homework is important….that’s the first and last area I clean everyday! That way they can get started on homework without any excuses!
The first day of school we all go out for breakfast together.
thank you
Have everyone take their showers before bed to relieve traffic in the bathroom in the morning.
Get everything ready the night before, make sure they get enough sleep and involve them in deciding what they have for lunch

Have everything ready to go the night before (outfit selected, lunch and backpack all packed up, etc)
Wake up earlier in the morning. Giving yourself enough time to get out the door.
Just make sure they get enough sleep at night…it makes the mornings so much easier when they are not cranky from lack of sleep.
make a weekly lunch plan and prepare the night before.
Be organized, and ready everything the night before. Have outfits picked out, have all homework and projects completed and placed in backpacks, plan what will be had for breakfast, and pack their lunches.
Take a tour of the school prior to the start of classes so that your child feels more at ease.
It helps mornings go smoother if everything is organized and lunches are packed the night before.
have them take note of who is in their classes in case they need to ask about homework assignments.
I make premade lunch kits, fruit cups, cheese and crackers, dips with veggies, and so on and all they have to do is grab and go.
Consistent bedtimes are the KEY! Once they get into THAT routine, the rest just pretty much falls into place!
Early sleep time and everything including lunch ready the night before!
Prepare breakfast and get kids (their stuffs) organized the night before will make morning smoother and easier.
Get clothes out the night before, have the breakfast table set with everything on it that doesn’t require refrigeration. Backpacks & shoes by the door.
Get everything together the night before.
My tip is to keep an agenda either online or on paper with notes and important dates and also wait until the teacher provides a list to go supply shopping so you don’t buy too much or the wrong items.
