A Parent’s Guide for Acing Back-To-School #BOTLBackToSchool
Dear Readers,
It’s hard to believe the summer is coming to an end. For some of you, the school year has already begun! In my home, we’re preparing for a September return and even though I’m still in summer mode, there is a lot of back to school planning to be done. With the anticipation of a new school year, there can be a whole range of emotions you and your children experience. You’re not alone! Whether you’re sending your little one off to junior kindergarten and dealing with anxiety over it, or have a teenager in high school who is wanting a whole new wardrobe before returning to classes – this time of year comes with its challenges.
That said, it can also be an exciting few weeks as you help your kids transition into a new season of life: new grade, new teacher, possibly new school. It’s an opportunity to help them grow and even have fun with them – from shopping for cool supplies and clothes to creating an action plan to help them meet their goals this school year. In this Back-To-School guide, I wanted to share some tips and helpful suggestions for this busy time of year. I hope you enjoy them and find them useful. I also invite you to signup to receive new posts from bestofthislife.com via email (subscribe below) for more helpful Back-To-School articles!
I encourage you to make this the best start to the new school year ever. I wish you and your family a positive and successful school year in 2017-2018!

No kids going back to school here, but I sure do enjoy seeing all the photos in my Facebook newsfeed. Going to pass this one on to some friends!
We are a homeschooling family and do school all year so we will have an easier time getting back into a routine next week. We were doing school 2 or 3 times a week and will increase to 4 or 5.
It’s crazy to think the summer is just about over and it’s time to head back to school. My kids are so ready.
Our oldest is headed to high school for the first time. I think we’re more nervous for her than we were when she started grade school!
I can’t believe all my babies start in 2 weeks! I will actually be able to get things done .
I only have one more child going back to school and he is on his last year in university so not much hassle anymore. I will make sure I share this post with cousins who have young children heading back to school in a few weeks.
This is a great resource. I loved the section on bookbags. It used to be so much fun picking out a book bag. Here when the kids start first grade they get a neon orange bookbag from the city so that everyone knows they are in first grade and they can help them along the way.
I am totally counting down the days for the munchkins to go back to school a new year full of fun beginnings.
Summer just flew buy, it’s a great summer other then a few wind storm we had such beautiful weather. These are great tips, forwarding to my daughter.
