kids homework Routine
Life with kids is busy. School, extra-curricular activities, dinner, relaxation and consistent bedtime routines are all an important part of your child’s weeknight. Make sure that you work homework into this daily routine:
- Encourage your child to do their homework at the same time every day – you’ll meet less resistance if they spend a half an hour on it every day, at the same time of day
- Having your child do homework while you’re busy with something like preparing dinner is a good way to keep them occupied while you’re busy too
- If your child is young, or has a special need then you may need to sit down with them and work through the homework with them. Make this part of their pre-bedtime routine, as quiet work like homework is a good way to help them wind down before bed
