Back to School at Cindy's Porch

Day 3: Reward!

First, take a minute to quickly make the bed. Perhaps your child has made it already! Then take a quick peak at the desk, is it still clear and ready for work? (Note: I have found that every time, we cleared off the desk, my kids have rediscovered how useful their desk is. It is immediately covered with crafts and writing projects. This is not a problem so long as it is work in progress. I keep an eye on it for a few days. If cobwebs start forming across the top, it is time to clear it off again!)

Today is reward day. You have been working hard and it is still summer out there. You don't want to spend all your time indoors. Make a date with your children to go for a bike ride or a trip to the beach or swimming pool. Memories are made of the things you do, not the things you buy. Enjoy your children!

Take a walk down to the school where the kids will be going next year. It is a great way to get new students familiar with a new school.

Take care of you, Cindy
