Parenting: Summer holidays are about to end, so make these preparations before sending children to school..

Samaira did not realize when her summer school holidays ended while she was playing and jumping. Now only a few days are left. Samaira is now tense because, at the beginning of the holidays, the holiday homework was done very regularly, but there is no count of when the homework slowed down. Mummy has a different problem because these days Samaira's sleeping and waking schedule has completely deteriorated and this will also cause problems during school days. If the same is the case at your home too, then it would be better to start efforts to improve it from today itself.

Days will not change immediately.

Habits that have deteriorated over a long period will not be corrected in a day. It would be better to try to mold the remaining days of the holiday according to the school routine. First of all, the children must get a full sleep and now wake them up in the morning at the same time as they have to leave for school.

Also fix a time for playing, eating studying, etc. This will make the children feel comfortable in getting ready for the change. Gradually start increasing the study hours because it is necessary to practice sitting continuously for six hours in school and two to three hours at home. It takes time to form a habit, so, this effort will take at least 10 to 12 days.

Some important things to know

This is the time when you have to see if the child is ready to go to school. For this, see how much work is still left in the schedule chart that was made to do the holiday homework and whether there is a need to work faster than the schedule. If a project is incomplete or there is a lot of work left in it, then it becomes a cause of stress. As soon as school starts, if the child reaches school with an incomplete project or homework, then he will not have confidence and he will get scolded in every class after reaching school.

Along with this, children start getting scared about studies, exams, and performance in the class even before the school opens. Along with this, sometimes children also have to face bullying in school. It would be better to talk to him openly. You need to talk until the situation gets out of hand. Provide them a comfort zone to talk, share their concerns and express themselves.

Children also feel stressed.

One sentence that parents say to children, whether intentionally or unintentionally, is how children are feeling stressed at this age, while the truth is that stress does not fall under any age limit. Parents can use many strategies to build confidence in their children before starting school again. First of all, parents themselves should accept that stress is a normal experience. Also, tell the children that people often feel this way. Your saying this will help the children to overcome this feeling.

You must identify the source of the child's stress. Not every stress is cured by medicines, sometimes it can also be resolved through conversation. Understand the feelings of children by encouraging them to share their concerns. If they are stressed about their pending homework, offer to help them. Establish a better environment with focus and time management. Children need love and acceptance, especially when they are going through emotional conflicts.

Leave the things of yesterday behind.

Sometimes the experiences of children in the previous class were not that positive. In such a situation, do not scold them for this. There is no use in scolding them repeatedly for low marks, poor performance, or any bullying in the previous class. Also, avoid speaking unnecessarily or discussing the previous year with family members. Focus on the present and encourage the child to think about other experiences. Parents should also be careful about their words. If you want, you can get help from the teachers of the new session.
