(NAPSI)-When kids go back to school, parents are often challenged to squeeze school activities into an already busy day. Developing a plan can help. Here are a few simple tips:
• Eliminate the morning rush. Assemble outfits the night before and place shoes, backpacks, handbags, briefcases and jackets by the door.
• Reduce car time. Organize a carpool to cut down the number of days you need to drive the kids around.
• Ask for help. Ask the kids to plan lunches and inform you of school activities. Keep a schedule on the refrigerator for easy reference.
• Snack right. For nutritious on-the-go snacks, cut up veggies and package them in resealable bags and keep an all-natural ZonePerfect Nutrition Bar in your bag or briefcase. Nutritious snacks can give you the energy and nutrients you need for your busy schedule.
• Don't forget yourself. Devote time just for you with a lunch-hour walk or an early-morning stretching session.
