Routines

By: Melissa, mom of three

Routines and reminders are hard, and my child likes to eat those laminated images. Yes, he once ate our bathroom list of jobs. (The level of disgusting in that is off the charts). I saw this amazing life hack on a facebook post and use it every school day. We have a hook with about 8 coil plastic bracelets, each with a job. They were cheap dollar store key holders. He puts them all on and when he does a job he hangs it on the hook. Our jobs include brushing teeth, brushing hair, getting dressed (including changed undies), putting lunch in a bag, taking medication, getting on shoes and coat, waiting for the bus
