Do you struggle to get the family going in the morning?  Regardless of if you are a stay at home parent, or you work outside the home, it is so so hard to get the entire family ready, fed and out the door each and every day.  Are you ready to make it a little bit easier?

Make the Mornings Easier with These Tips

Go to bed earlier

I know you want to squeeze every extra minute out of the day, but maybe you are struggling with your mornings because you are so tired.  Even an extra half an hour during the day can make a huge difference for you. 

Set clothes out in advance

It doesn’t even matter who we are talking about here.  It can be a 40 year old woman heading off to work or a 5 year old child prepping for kindergarten, having your kids laid out in advance will save a lot of time each and every morning.  I highly suggest trying this out!

Wake up earlier

I know we all want those last couple of minutes of sleep, but the reality is, your day could go completely better if you just had a few more minutes in the morning so you didn’t have to rush things.  How much of a difference would 20 minutes make in your day?

Opt for easy breakfasts

You know what?  It is absolutely and totally fine for the kids to grab a frozen waffle, a container of yogurt, a bowl of cereal or even a granola bar for breakfast.  Don’t let the parent shamers of this world make you think that this isn’t okay. What is most important is that they are fed. Leaving the house with an empty stomach will not help your kids have a successful day, so just make sure they eat something.  Don’t assume you need to create a fancy breakfast every day.
