Back 2 School Survival Guide

“Smooth Transition from Summer to School !”  Sounds great, doesn’t it?  But what about getting out of summer bedtimes, and getting homework done, packing the lunchboxes, morning and afternoon carpool, expectations, grades, extracurricular activities?  I could go on and on.

Well. Susan, The Confident Mom, has done it again with her Back 2 School Survival Guide.  She has taken all her years of experience in parenting and family coaching and put them onto paper to help moms like me and you make a smooth transition from relaxing summer days and travel to the routine of school days.

Here are a some of the topics she covers in the Back 2 School Survival Guide:

•       Put your child’s back-to-school anxieties to rest.
•       Help your child thrive in school and at home by setting up easy-to-follow routines.
•       Make packing lunches a snap and learn to send lunches that are more likely to be consumed.
•       Stay on top of activities for the entire family.
•       Teach your children how to set goals and celebrate their successes.
