Summer is all about flexibility—later bedtimes, relaxed mornings, vacations, and a little less structure. Then suddenly…school starts, sports begin, activities fill the calendar, and everyone is expected to get back into a routine!

In this episode of The Development Download, Lisa and Erin talk about the transition from summer schedules back to the busy school-year routine. We’ll share practical strategies to help kids (and parents!) adjust to earlier mornings, school expectations, homework, activities, meals, bedtime, and all the changes that come with a new school year.
