Getting Kids Ready For Back To School

• Start putting the kids to bed earlier every night so that by the time school starts they are used to a school time bedtime.

• Take them to the school for orientation, especially if they are just starting school or going to a new school.

• Get your school shopping done early both for clothes and supplies so it doesn't have to be so hectic.

• Have one last summer splurge even if it's something simple. Let them enjoy the end of summer.

• Find out what the school rules are on dress codes before you go shopping. Also talk to your children and set rules about what types of clothes they are allowed to wear before hand so it's understood. Also tell them what their budget for school clothes will be. If you are used to picking out their clothes, let them pick out one or two items that they really like and you can agree on.
