With the start of the new school year just around the corner, mothers face a mix of preparations and challenges — from shopping for supplies to organizing schedules and providing emotional support for their children. Since a strong beginning paves the way for success, here are some practical tips to help every mother welcome the school year with positive energy and give her children the motivation they need.
1. Establish a Sleep Routine Early
Adjust bedtime and wake-up hours at least a week before school starts. This helps children gradually adapt and wake up refreshed and ready for the day.
2. Prepare Healthy Lunchboxes
Breakfast and lunchbox meals are vital to keeping kids energized throughout the day. Include a balance of proteins, fruits, and vegetables, presented in creative ways that encourage kids to enjoy them.
3. Involve Your Child in School Preparations
Let your child choose some of their school supplies. It gives them a sense of responsibility and excitement for the new year.
4. Create a Daily Schedule
Plan ahead for study time, playtime, and bedtime. A clear routine reduces stress for both mother and child.
5. Boost Their Confidence
Talk to your child about their strengths and remind them that mistakes are part of learning — not signs of failure.
6. Support Without Pressure
Follow up on homework and activities, but avoid being overly controlling. Encourage independence so your child learns responsibility.
7. Build a Positive Atmosphere
A smile, a kind word, or encouragement from you can make a big difference, helping your child head to school with enthusiasm.
8. Don’t Forget Yourself
The start of the school year can also be overwhelming for mothers. Take time to rest and care for yourself, so you can support your children with positive energy.
