How do you get your kids ready for the back-to-school routine?
Asked at Lawrence Aquatic Center, 727 Ky. on August 9, 2010
“We start trying to set an earlier bedtime and wakeup time and then try to get them to do a little bit of math and a little bit of reading.”
“We start weening back on the sugar, we do a lot of pushups …get the haircuts and start working on the bedtimes again.”
“About two weeks before, we start getting in the bedtime routine and practicing the showers…and no eating between 8 and 11.”
“Well, we’re trying to get him to read two books between now and the end of the summer.”
