Plan, plan, plan and a little more planning. This school year, our mornings have been more rushed and out of sorts with three kids going to school. I have a couple of kids who are as slow as molasses and no matter what time I wake them up they are down at the table the same time! So as a mom, I have to plan and get as much as I can ready the night before. This really helps a lot and makes the mornings go smoother.
My nightly routine is...
* Lay out all their clothes (from undies to pants)
* Make lunches. I even fill their water thermos and put it in the frig the night before.
* Lay out bowls, spoons and cereal on the table.
* Make sure all binders, papers and backpacks are ready. Sometimes we even put them in the car the night before!
* I even lay out their vitamins on the table.
I have been known to put toothpaste on the toothbrushes the night before BUT my kids were not to fond of that! The point of all this, is that anything that can be done the night before makes our mornings better. I have talked before that I make a breakfast schedule. Cereal is the perfect and easy breakfast in our house. I know eating healthy cereal with piece of fruit will hold my kids till lunch. I usually have about 2 to 3 types of cereal for my kids to pick from. Also, cereal is a great breakfast because the kids can clean up and put their bowls in the dishwasher. It is perfect for those mornings that you feel rushed!
We also put our cereal in bags and eat in the car when we are running late~
How does your family avoid the "morning rush"?
