School is starting and you will be on the run going crazy in the mornings trying to get yourself and the kid ready for the that mad dash through the door. It is very important that you establish a routine for the family. Routine teachers organization, planning and it lessens stress and anxiety for you and your infant/toddler. These are a few things that you may want to start with:
Have a set time that you eat dinner
Do not put your baby to bed with a bottle
Bathe the baby in the night
Back her bag in the night
If you will be taking food put it in one bag in the fridge
Use the same bag for lunch and keep it in one spot
Select the clothing from the night before
Wake up on time this will avoid stress for your infant/toddler
Keep a wall calendar that all family members can see
Read all childcare notices
You should also have a pocket calendar that you will be able to check during the day
When you have a routine it helps you to stay organized and you are teaching your infant/toddler to be organized. You are also teaching time management. If you have older children let one of them be in charge of the calendar.
These are life skills .
