[quote=Anonymous]You can definitely start working towards this independence early. My kids have been getting their own breakfasts (generally cereal or toasting a waffle) since early elementary. Around 1-3rd grade we had charts for them to go through their morning responsibilities -- dress, wash, feed pets, make bed, brush hair, etc. They are in 5th and 7th now and it's been years since we had to do anything in the a.m. other than review what they have completed. If they bring lunch, that gets discussed/packed the night before with me, but mostly they prefer to buy at school so the lunch packing is more a summer camp thing.[/quote]
