[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp said something really important- have the kids get dressed and ready before breakfast. That way if things are going slow they can eat the last bite and run. Mine brush their teeth before breakfast, but if you really want them to do it after, you can keep a set of toothbrushes near your kitchen so they don’t walk away from the “main” area near when it’s time to go. [/quote] Yes, getting dressed before they come downstairs and have breakfast has been essential for us too! The kids have toothbrushes at the kitchen sink so they don’t have to go back upstairs after breakfast and I put together their breakfasts while they get their water bottles and backpacks together. That way they aren’t tripping over each other to make their breakfasts but are still doing tasks that move us towards getting out the door - still some mornings are smoother than others…[/quote]
