[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try getting him exercise in the morning before school. Hard this time of year but it can help.[/quote] Maybe we will try walking to school. I'm just worried about him being physically tired when school is so demanding, but maybe he needs to be.[/quote] Walk to school. Play on the school playground after school for 20-30 minutes (coat, hated and gloves/mittens in winter, stay as long as you can tolerate) if they are too young for organized sports, and every night after dinner do something. Walk/bike/scooter around the block. Play in the back yard. We even did a indoor race in winter/rainy nights (kids ran in a circle through kitchen, dining room and foyer, we cheered them on - "go Larlo go," "looking great Larla, 4 laps to go," etc.) Your high energy kid is not going to be to physically tired just from walking to school[/quote]
