A good routine is like a really good navigation system. Yes, you still have to do the driving, but it takes much less brain power and you don't get lost along the way. But, it’s not as easy as just ripping off the bandaid and starting the routine back up on the first day of the new school year. There are steps that can help ease the transition from laid-back summer to school-mode for both you and your kids. That’s what I’m covering on this episode of the podcast so that you can be set up for success no matter where you’re starting from. This episode of the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast will help you discover: The benefits of routines for kids Tips for starting (or re-starting) routines The 2 routines every home needs to stay sane Examples of routines that we use in our home Secrets for making routines sticky and more successful ********************** Music: Fresh Lift by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com Happy by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial  Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/Happy-MBB  Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/g6swHZbWtRc  ********************** Subscribe & Review Are you subscribed to the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast?
