That's it, it's back to school! But this year, instead of panicking, take inspiration from one of the 10 ideas proposed to highlight it positively with your family.
Have a party
Dancing, jiggling and singing are great ways to relieve stress! By partying with the family, tensions evaporate, we sleep better and we all wake up in a good mood!
Have a special dinner
Welcome your child in a great family atmosphere so that he doesn't feel alone in this new great adventure he is embarking on. Prepare a fun meal and her favorite dessert! And remember to invite grandfather and grandmother to have a meal with the little family.
At the restaurant
Some restaurants offer discounted children's menus and a family atmosphere. Because your child is in the spotlight, it is he who chooses where we will have dinner!
To his taste
Prepare a day "to his liking". Set aside a Saturday, so you can give her more of the day. Ask him, in advance, to write his choices on a sheet explaining to him that, according to the possibilities, some of the activities will be retained, but that he will be surprised.
Moviesinspiring
For the last home movie night of the holidays, we listen to an inspiring film about school: Matilda, Mademoiselle C, The Dead Poets Society, etc.
An outing to the spa
If you can, go to a family spa. Each a small massage and presto! Back to school seems much less painful to us! You can also have a spa at home. We do a foot bath, we cream them and then we find someone to massage them. You can also buy a mild massage oil (or just take almond oil) and you can give a simple and gentle massage to the children before bedtime.
Say “yes”
Go! The whole family plays the Wii, even grandfather and grandmother, we have fun playing lots of games… and we even exceed the time usually allowed in a day for video games.
The stakes are down
An evening of board games with the family, with juice, chips, popcorn, candies and above all a postponed bedtime.
Straight ahead
Make with him a fun plan of his school year, in the more or less long term. Insert stages with rewards (ex: each month, he will be en titled to a special activity such as the cinema, the restaurant, etc.), insert dates of holidays and holidays (such as Halloween, Christmas, etc.), as well as outings already planned (a short family trip, a long Thanksgiving weekend, etc.) The goal is to show him that the year won't be endless.
Sunday Ritualevening
As a family, we find a ritual that we will do and repeat every Sunday evening of the year, which will prevent us from experiencing the little depression of "pre-Monday". We can decide that we play a board game with the family after dinner, that we go to a sport together or that we rent a comedy. We can also make a list of “family fun” and we will pick each Sunday. And a special pleasure on the eve of the new school year, of course!
