Tips for families who want to start the day more relaxed
Time is especially valuable in the morning. That's why everything has to be planned carefully in families. To ensure everyone stays on schedule, we have a few practical tips.
In most families, time is short in the morning. We have a few tips for you to save parents from complaining and to help children get their act together more quickly.
Get dressed, have breakfast, brush your teeth and get out of the house. In most families, the morning is strictly scheduled. After all, the kids have to go to school or daycare on time and the parents have to go to work. Unfortunately, despite this, or perhaps because of this, it very often becomes a medium to large ordeal.
The dear little ones don't stick to the timing. The less time there is on the clock, the more there is dawdling, messing around and complaining and in the end we parents complain. After all, everyone leaves the house super stressed and already annoyed early in the morning.
This doesn't have to be the case if you just change a few little things. Try these 7 tips:
1. Give your children a path
It's best to hang small index cards in the children's room so that your child can see everything that needs to be done. Brush your teeth, get dressed, comb your hair, make the bed. Once the little ones understand that there is the same program every morning, then they will internalize it.

So that your little one doesn't start dawdling in the morning, because time is very valuable, you guide them through the day with their favorite songs. Agree when something should be done.
3. Let your child choose their things
It's best to pick out all the outfits for the week together on Sunday evening. Every day of the week has a permanent place in the closet and you can avoid morning discussions.

5. Prepare breads and snacks
The lunch box and small snacks can also be easily prepared in the evening. Let your children decide what they want on their lunch - but make a small selection beforehand.
6. Satchels, gym bags and shoes have their own place
Everyone in the family has their own little corner where they put the things they need the next morning. The school bag is packed in the evening, the shoes are next to it and the gym bag too. So you can't actually forget anything.
7. Protect yourself
Mornings tend to be particularly hectic. Plates from the table or drinking cups regularly fall over. Our tip: Protect your outfit from stains and other disasters. Quite simply with a bathrobe, for example.

With all the brushing your teeth, making dinner, washing your hands, and cleaning up early in the morning, you should always wear your bathrobe over your outfit. Annoying stains on your blouse or trousers are now a thing of the past.
