Ten kids, Ten Back-to-School Supplies, Lists, Sports and Paperwork Tips for college, high school, grade and pre-school prep for mom and kids
College Three off to college this year!
Find out the dimensions of the room so you can sketch out and plan what they can actually take with them.
Have your child communicate with their roommate to find out what they are bringing to help share the space.
Use the school's list to get you started on what to bring. If you can't find it online, call the admissions or student housing office.
For me, bedding is a big piece of making their dorm room feel like home. I get new sheets and purchase extra padding to make it extra soft.
If you have kids in college and returning, they need to get their items out of storage and packed back up.
High School Three of the kids are back to school, back to sports; get ready!
Get their list of books and get them working on trading, buying or selling from others who've taken the class.
Ransack the closet. Try on clothes, hand down items that don't fit, test out the shoes to make sure they fit and have proper support.
If you have uniforms, get it all set to go. Snag hand-me-downs from a friend.
Get schedules drawn out on a white board or public location for the entire family to see the practices, games, special events, etc.
Grade School Three have been keeping sharp all summer
It's best to not take the full summer off from school. Yes, take the break from the classroom, but keep your grade school kids engaged with summer reading, math worksheets and activities that keep skills sharpened up.
School supply lists from teachers are important at this age. Find out what you already have, what you need to get and get organized by putting items straight into the backpack.
Label their things with their name.
Start changing sleeping habits from summer mode (late nights) to school mode (earlier nights, earlier mornings).
Pre-School Our little one needs time to adjust from family to school
Take your littlest ones on a tour of the pre-school. Help them get excited about their teacher and classroom before the first day.
Set-up playdates with friends that will be going with them to get them reaquainted after a summer off.
After a summer with family, they need time to reconnect with what it means to be in school. For our little one, he misses the activity of having all the other nine around him. It's a big adjustment.
