[quote=Anonymous]OP - these all seem amazing but they aren't - both of my kids do it. You just need to one thing at a time. My 5th grader has a alarm and he is in charge of getting up and gets dressed before he comes down. One of my tricks is that there is no screen time until you are ready for school. So my 5th grader gets up, gets dressed, eats a bowl of cereal and brushes his teeth in about 20 minutes so he can have 20 minutes watching videos before he goes to school. His choice and I'm fine with it. My 8th grader likes to meander so he gets up an hour early. But prepares everything himself. Work on getting up with alarm first, getting dressed before you come downstairs and then add the next thing, breakfast. But, in my house, lunch is decided the night before - either buying or packing your own after dinner - that's a lot to ask in the morning.[/quote]
