Talk about new class jitters

When kids resume a new school year, there’s a bit of nervousness that comes with starting in a new class, experiencing a new class teacher and sometimes new friends. Talking to them about their expectations and the realities of a new class would go a long way in easing the feeling of anxiety and encourage them to speak up about their feelings.

Re-establish a routine

Getting back into the school routine may take a while and some getting used to. Re-establish a routine by creating a system that works and endeavour to follow through. This can be done a week to resumption to give the kids some time to get used to it. Reinforce the importance of having a schedule and watch your kids settle in nicely.

Early to bed, early to rise

Line up an early bedtime routine

During the summer holidays, sleeping patterns changed but with being back to school, it can be a challenge getting back to the early to bed, early to rise scheduling. Start off an early evening after school routine such as a quick shower time, early dinner plans, set up and maintain a homework review session, get into your bedtime routine early on.

Regulate screen time

The long holiday came with little time spared for academic work, hours and hours of screen time with the kids binge watching their favourite shows and catching up with friends over video calls and messaging apps.

Regulating their screen time to get them back on the academic track is as easy as establishing rules with word of mouth, reinforcing and using parental control tools. Explain why they need to be off their devices at certain times and what the reward looks like.
