Get Ready First Day Comes Soon

It's that time of year again. Time for the first day of school. While some schools have all ready started and others will start soon the first day of school is sure to happen. School signifies that summer is mostly over and it is time to get an education but this is not always easy. Many children will feel a bit uneasy even as they prepare to head back to the classroom.

While each student may feel as if they are the only one not ready to go back to school it is important to remind them that they are not alone. Anxiety of students will be high and the teachers will try to make the best of this. You can help as well by talking to your young student about the fun they will have, old friends they will see again as well as time to make new ones. Perhaps doing something special on the first day of school will make both you and your child feel good about the first day of school. 

What is it that you do to make the first day of school special?? Need a bit of help here are some ideas:

• prepare a special breakfast for the first day of school. Sharing the morning meal together before leaving for school will leave time for last minute nerves to be curbed. This does not have to take up a lot of time 
• Write a little note and leave it where they will be able to find it. A simple "I Love You" will go a long way. 
• leaving a note in your childs lunch box or backpack will offer them the encouragement they need on that first day. 
• does your child take their lunch to school?? If so why not offer them a surprise of a healthy but tasty snack. 
• Make your child the star of the day Take pictures the first day of school and share them with friends and family
