It’s that time of year again. Time for the 2012-2013 school year. Below are some tips for getting your students ready to go back to school!
5 Tips to Prepare for Back to School
- Get a spot ready for homework. Clear or designate a place for your children to do their homework. This makes a great place for the student to clear their mind and focus on their school projects.
- Go over class information. You can help your children to understand what is expect of them, and of yourself, as they enter into the new school year. If a teacher indicates upcoming projects or topics to be taught in class, this is a great opportunity to plan family activities that are related to what’s happening in school!
- Shop early for supplies. In the next couple weeks a lot of stores have amazing deals and sales for back to school items. Get everything now, so you don’t have to pay full price later.
- Get back to routine. Start a few days before the actual school start date on set bed times and meal times. Get them off the summer schedule and make it an easy transition into the school schedule so everyone will be ready for the first week of school.

Are you looking for something for you and your kids to do during summer break? Here’s a list of collected ideas to keep them entertained over the summer while they wait for the next school year.
1. Swimming Lessons. It never hurts to practice swimming skills. A great way to cool off and keep safe around the pool. Visit your local community center pool and see what classes are offered to teach your child the importance of water safety!
2. The Library. Go to the library and let your children pick out books to read over the summer. Some libraries also offer summer programs and activities for kids, ask the librarian for a calendar of events.
3. Volunteer. Teach your children how to help others by volunteering a few hours a week at a nearby soup kitchen with them. Show the meaning of charity.
4. Scrap booking. Have them take pictures of their summer adventures, then let them put together a scrap book showing the fun they experienced. This also makes a great show-and-tell item for the next school year!
5. Talent Show. Have your children put on a talent show with their friends. Invite your friends and families to enjoy the show and celebrate their talents.
6. Fundraisers. If you have a group tour planned next year or want to raise money for a charity or organization, this is a great time to have a car wash, yard sale or BBQ to raise money for your tour! For more fund raising ideas and tips, click here.
