Morning Routine

Combined with the evening routine, your morning routine will help you get your day started as calmly as possible.


  1. Wake early enough to shower and dress before waking the family
  2. Get the coffee started
  3. Wake the hoard!  
  4. Get breakfast on the table
  5. Sit and eat with the family.  Discuss what's going on today.  Is there soccer practice?  Spelling tests?
  6. Send the kids to brush their teeth and gather their things
  7. Have everyone meet by the door at the designated time and do a quick check.  Shoes tied? Shirt buttoned?  Hair combed?
  8. Do the school run
  9. Do the Daily Quick Clean
Now take a moment to catch your breath.  Set a timer and take an internet break, read the headlines, work on a project...whatever you want.  Limit this to an hour or less or you will run the risk of getting too distracted.  You can always go back to it after you get your daily routines done.
