[quote=Anonymous]Different with each kid.  Oldest does it right after school.  Middle child does it early morning.  Youngest does it right before bed.  I just go with what works for each kid.  Also, I vary locations depending on what works with each kid.  My oldest always works on the desk in his room.  My middle child lays on a tile floor and has an iPod playing music in the background.  My youngest had been sitting in the kitchen, but just this last week, it seems right in front of the fireplace with a board on her lap to hold her work works better.  And, my oldest just decided he reads better with some quiet music playing.

Point is try lots of things.  Be creative.  Help your child figure out how they can best and most efficiently fulfill their obligations.  And, change it as your kids change.

Also,  all shower in the morning and have been since kindergarten.  I also have a dwadler and after a reasonable amount of time in the shower, I go and shut the water off and hand him a towel.  My guess is that he washes about four times a week and washes his hair five.  Good enough for me.  Having them shower in the morning adds less than five minutes to my morning routine. [/quote]
