Parent Hack! ?? Quick fixes for a smoother spring! ?? You may notice your family's routine start to change as spring approaches, with daylight increasing and weather getting warmer. Here are some quick tips to help everyone adjust: 1. Wake-up time: If early sunrises are waking up your little ones, try blackout curtains for some extra sleep. 2. Meal time: After-school and outdoor activities increase with warmer weather, giving you less time in the kitchen. Prep ahead with your favorite crockpot recipes, ready to serve when you get home. Or fire up the grill so you can cook while spending time outside with your kids. 3. Rainy day fun: Keep indoor activities ready—think board games, baking, or a scavenger hunt to keep kids entertained when the weather’s unpredictable.

Growing plants helps preschoolers develop a sense of responsibility and fosters creativity while they learn about nature's cycles in a hands-on way. ?? Try it at home with your kids! #upcycyle #recycle #spring #preschool #earlylearning #springiscoming #growingtogether #plantingforkids | https://lnkd.in/eXi6iJgD
