As BabysitEase begins placing babysitters and nannies for after school care it reminds us of some resources we have posted in the past.
This post entitled "Easing the Summer to School Transition" posted originally in August 2006 provided these great tips among others:
- The weeks leading up to the first school week begin adjusting bed times and wake-up to simulate a regular school week
- Begin to limit video game and TV viewing to more closely simulate the time available after school, homework, and dinner
- Prepare a small writing or reading assignment or craft to start getting your child back into a structured learning rythem
There is also this "Get Organized with a Back to School Checklist" post from August 2008 provides a link to a great online checklist from Online Organizing to help you plan the kids return to school.
