The time is fast approaching for the kiddos to start heading back to school! Although some of them may dread going back and are wishing for a longer summer, as parents, it’s a bittersweet time.

Here are some tips on how to make going back to school easier for them as well as you!

• Make the first day special! Make a special breakfast, like chocolate chip waffles or pancakes, and give them a special treat in their lunch! Perhaps a homemade brownie or cookie!
• When you take them school supply shopping, splurge for the folders that have their favorite characters on them! They will be way more excited about schoolwork if it involves things they love! If you don’t want to spend the money on those folders as they can get a bit expensive, at least get the basic ones in their favorite color(s).
• Prepare meals ahead of time, there are plenty of great meals that you can make and plan for the whole week! It makes the mornings run a little smoother and gets them out the door on time!
• Take a little time for YOU! Sending the kids back to school can be a stressful time. Our Massage Chairs, HydroMassage and AquaMassage can work out all those kinks from carrying school supply bags and built up tension from staying up late helping with homework!

Using these tips will make going back to school a little easier for everyone and the kids won’t dread it so much!
