There are several different ways you need to prepare your child for school, including mentally, emotionally, and physically. Whatever the age, there are certain physical things that you need to get ready for them to begin school. If your kids are like mine are, they have spent the summer with long nights and late mornings. Now that school is almost here, it’s time to move back to an earlier schedule. If you have older children, this might be more difficult as you have less control over their schedule.

Continue this until your child is sleeping and waking during the same hours they will be when school starts. Find out more Back To School Tips and Advices , from our daily Flash Briefings.
