STRESS-FREE PRIMARY SCHOOL DAYS

Are you stressed out managing your kids’ school routines and homework?

The early morning starts and rushing errands/work while the kids are at school can take its toil on even the fittest among us.

I have two kids in primary school and Josh my youngest will join his brother next year. I also have an elderly godmother to care for at home. Some days can be overwhelming but I am learning that the difficult days will pass, and to relish the good and fruitful moments.

If you find yourself struggling to keep up with a hectic schedule, these tips/hacks may be useful for you:
  • Prepare breakfast in advance
  • Talk to your child about school
  • Minimise enrichment classes after school
  • Create an inbox at home for school communication
  • Scenario plan for anxious children
  • Break up revision for spelling/tingxie
