As summer winds down and parents are preparing their kids for back-to-school season, it can be a challenge to get into the classroom mindset. After weeks of summer camp, playing outdoors, travel, and no schoolwork to speak of, it\u2019s almost time to swap the beach balls for books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re concerned about the transition, these items below will help you get your child into the school spirit without spoiling the remainder of the summer. School is just as exciting than the summer months off\u2026especially if you<\/em> say so!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book Bags and School Supplies <\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll surely need some school supplies and perhaps a new book bag or backpack. Even if your child\u2019s school doesn\u2019t require that you provide your own supplies, there\u2019s always something new you can pick up, even if it\u2019s just a box of pencils or a set of colorful erasers. A fresh start makes starting school special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it\u2019s time for a new schoolbag, you can find one at nearly any price, from budget-friendly to over-the-top trendy. Get something age- and size-appropriate, preferably something well-made and sturdy that can be used all year and beyond. There\u2019s always the hand-me-down option as well, making use of a gently-used bag for a student in need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First-Day Outfit<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

No matter their age or style, your child will want to look great and feel confident for that first day back. Pick out clothing in advance with input from your child and your final approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have a brand-new outfit, that is always exciting, but something they have already can be just as flattering. Be sure the clothing is comfortable, breathable, and fits well. Same goes for footwear. If your child\u2019s school requires a mask, remember to include one as part of the first-day fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Get Up to Speed on Reading <\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Hopefully you\u2019re reading with your child throughout the summer. If you\u2019ve been putting the books aside for summer activities, now\u2019s the time to crack open a book. Keeping your child\u2019s vocabulary strong and their literacy skills sharp will give them an advantage as they get back to the classroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Consider forming a book club or reading group with some of your child\u2019s friends before school starts. They can read together and discuss the story. It\u2019s a nice way to reconnect friends who may not have seen each other in a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Set a Sleep Schedule<\/h3><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019ve been letting the kids stay up later during the summer, it\u2019s time to ease back into the school week nighttime routine. Each night, inch closer to the bedtime they\u2019ll have to abide by once school starts. The much-needed sleep will make your children more focused in the classroom. Not to mention, getting them up in the morning will be much easier if they\u2019re well-rested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
