THE SCHEDULE FOR BOYS THAT I SWEAR BY 💙

THE SCHEDULE FOR BOYS THAT I SWEAR BY 💙 Boy moms know how important it is to "keep the day moving". If you don't, your boys will be crawling up the walls. This isn't rocket science but it's a basic schedule format that keeps us from running into "peeling the paint off the walls" scenarios 😬 💥Screenshot the last slide 7:00 AM — WAKE + GRAB & GO ☀️ Get everyone dressed and give them an easy breakfast they can eat quickly. Easy options: 🍎 Apple 🧀 Cheese stick 🥣 Yogurt pouch Chomps Breakfast bar The goal is to get everyone fed + dressed without making a full breakfast yet. 7:30 AM — GET OUTSIDE ☕ You drink your coffee while they burn energy. 🚲 Bikes 🛴 Scooters Trampoline ⚽ Play in backyard Goal: Everyone gets fresh air before the day gets chaotic. 8:30 AM — REAL BREAKFAST 🍳 Now that they've burned some energy... Make the real breakfast. 🧇 Waffles 🍳 Eggs 🥓 Bacon 🥤 Smoothies 🍓 Fruit (Also they're usually much hungrier after being outside and by this time you've had your coffee and you're not scrambling around the kitchen without caffeine ) 9:30 AM - 12PM — GET OUT OF THE HOUSE 🚗 This is your big activity window 🌳 Park 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Play date 🥾 Nature walk 🦖 Trampoline park 🏛️ Museum The goal here is to get out of the house before fights break out and things start getting broken 😅 12:00 PM — LUNCH 🍽️ Back home for lunch and a reset. After lunch is a good time to do a "mini activity" like a hot wheels track or magnatiles. Then... 1:00-3:00 PM — REST TIME 😴 Naps Books Movie Puzzles Quiet activities 3:00 PM — EARLY DINNER. YES, I SWEAR. 🍝 My boys are the most hungry at this time and always want a million snacks. Then by the time we have dinner they aren't as hungry. so instead (if it works with our day) I feed them a real meal that is nutritious and filling. Later they have snacks or another light dinner. After this meal you can do a "mini activity" like sticker books or a sensory bin. 4:00-6:00 PM — BURN THE REST OF THE ENERGY 🔥 Back outside. 🌳 Backyard 🏞️ Park 🚶 Walk ⚽ Play outside 🚲 Bikes/scooters 6:30-8:30 — 2nd Dinner/ Snack, Baths + bedtime After bath, make a fort with the nugget couch and give them flashlights to play with inside the fort. This activity burns a lot of time if you have a window that needs to be filled before books + bed. 📦 SAVE OR SCREENSHOT THIS!
