6 Tips About Setting Your Child Up When Going Back 2 School.

Whether your child’s summer vacation was jam-packed with activities or filled with complaints about being bored with nothing to do, kids often have a tough time making the back-to-school transition.
Starting the new school year can be a time of great excitement… and anxiety. As with any new or potentially unsettling situation, allow your child time to adjust. 

Help calm your child’s fears (and your own) with these  few tips.

Calm Nervousness: Let your child know that everyone feels a little nervous about the first day of school and that it will all become an everyday routine in no time.

Establish Positivity: Emphasize the positive things about going back to school - such as hanging out with old friends, meeting new classmates, buying cool school supplies, and getting involved in sports and other activities.

 Develop Reassurance: Talk to your child about what worries them and offer reassurance: Are they afraid they won't make new friends or get along with their teachers? Is the thought of schoolwork stressing them out? Are they worried about the troublemaker from last year?

Enforce a Routine: Switching from the summer vacations to a school schedule can be stressful to everyone in the household. Set the alarm clock, go through your morning rituals, and get in the car or to the bus stop on time. Routines will help your child feel comfortable, and establishing a solid school routine will make the first day of school go much smoother.

Make Time: And please, consider adjusting your own schedule to make the transition smoother. If possible, it's especially beneficial if you could be at home at the end of the school day for the first week. But many working moms and dads just don't have that flexibility. Instead, try to arrange your evenings so you can give your child as much time as he/she needs, especially during those first few days.

Teach Your Child: Learning always starts at home and your child’s mood affects how well he/she learns. A positive outlook is the best thing you can inspire in your child to keep him/her performing well at school and willing to tackle his/her homework.
