Hear me out… let’s continue to enjoy summer time while we think ahead to a new school year. Right now, I’m doing three tasks to ease into the new season without spoiling summer joy and simplicity.
Quick inventory: Do we need to purchase new backpacks, lunch boxes or water bottles this year? What about shoes, socks and underwear? It’s time to think about the staples and make a list.
School Supplies: Locate my kids’ school supplies list. If you don’t have one yet, no big deal. We know folders, crayons, scissors and pencils are necessities. Check out Target, Walmart and Staples for early deals and grab them before the big rush.
Add holidays, school breaks and days off to our family’s calendar. Consider before school and/or after school care arrangements. Will we need help, and if so, is it time to start looking to hire someone or arrange carpool for fall?
These are a few things I’ve been working on the last two weeks. I hope this offers some guidance rather than stress. Keep enjoying summer!
