3 Tips For a Less Stressful Morning With The Kids

3 Tips For a Less Stressful Morning With The Kids


It’s a problem for all parents. You have 1000 things to accomplish in the day including a 9am meeting with a potential client. In order to make it to the meeting on time you need the morning routine to go like clockwork. Unfortunately, your children don’t have the same sense of urgency that you do, and refuse to get dressed. What should you do? Here are 3 tips from various bloggers, to help you get your children out of the house on time every morning.

Kathy Slattengren of Pricelessparenting believes that the child needs to see the benefit of getting ready for school on time. She writes: ” In order for her son to be self-motivated to get dressed quickly in the morning, he needed to see a benefit in doing so. The benefit could be eating breakfast, being able to dress at home instead of at preschool or having time for a story. Whatever the benefit, mom should let him know ahead of time and then follow through on it. Mom could say “Please join me for breakfast just as soon as you are dressed. Breakfast will be served until 7:30.” If he gets dressed quickly, he’ll have time for breakfast. However, if he’s slow then he’s likely to miss the 7:30 time frame and also breakfast. Mom can definitely expect an uproar if he misses breakfast. She might be comforted in knowing that he will not starve and he will probably change his behavior so as not to miss breakfast in the future. ”

Give a weekly reward is the advice from MommySavers. ” I try not to engage in a power struggle, just tell her that if she doesn’t want to get dressed she can go in her pjs or that she won’t get her reward on Fri if she doesn’t get moving. She gets a reward on Friday for not getting any reports home from school all week and I have added getting out the door without tantrums/fights. We having been making it out w/out fights, but we are still rushing (which she doesn’t like and gets grumpy) or late (which I don’t like and I get grumpy). Looking for suggestions so we are happier ppl in the morn!”

Prepare the night before is the lesson from Karaskids. Summarizing her success in getting her kids off to Sunday school she writes, ” I know what you are thinking…it sounds like chaos, and with a little planning it could run smoother. Did I mention that I am a major procrastinator??? Getting everything ready ahead of time really does not even cross my mind. But, this week was a little different. I decided to shower the night before. I also got the lesson printed off and everything ready. I laid out the boys clothes. This morning ran fairly smoothly. Todd took over as usual for breakfast. While everyone was eating I got myself dressed and ready. Then, I ate my breakfast and had the boys dress themselves. I dressed McKenna and did her hair. Todd was ready and we were out the door on time.”
