Early Morning Grind
Last week, Eilan and Lianne started the whole day classes. From August to October their classes were only every afternoon, 1:00-5:00PM from Monday to Thursday. Now it is 8:00-11:00 AM and 1:00-4:00PM. They were so excited on the whole day class and we told them that we should be changing our morning routines. They will be sleeping early so that they can wake up early.
At 5:00 A.M., I should wake up, cook for the rice and then go to my laundry. My husband will be the one to cook the viand for breakfast and lunch of the kids. We don't have a househelp since August so it will be just us who will be sharing the household chores. At 6:00AM, the kids are already awake and they will take a bath. After they take a bath, my husband usually finished cooking and I am on my way of hanging the clothes too. We will eat our breakfast together. After eating the breakfast, my kids will brush their teeth and change their clothes with their uniforms. I am going to prepare for my kids baon for morning snacks, lunch and afternoon snacks too. These are their usual baon. I buy it from grocery and put some bits of snacks for them.
I also sometimes include fruits and cheese.
Sometimes, I also prepare pancakes and put some yogurt drinks. But these yogurt drinks are for 2 times a week only.
I would be very happy if they will be able to eat the baon that we prepared for them.
Every lunch time, I will be visiting them since our office is just near their school.
Our everyday morning grind needs time management, but we started to adjust on it. I am also now early in going to the office because of the schedule of the kids. Our family team work is really important everyday for us not to be late in going to school.
How about you? What's your morning routine activities with your kids especially now that most of them are schooling? I would really love to read some of your comments. Maybe you have some tips and practices that I can learn and apply to my morning routine too.
That would be all, keep safe everyone!

That's actually a nice routine! And I love how you practice teamwork to be able to do everything on time. And I'm sure the kids snacks and lunch were prepared with so much love. :))
As for us, we have here two grade 11 students and a grade 7. And here's our usual morning grind. 5am, kids will wake up and then whoever wakes up among 3 of them will cook rice already. before 6am, the scheduled cook for the day has to be done cooking already so that the kids can have their breakfast at 6am. 6:30, they are off to school since they classes starts at 7am.
As for their lunch, it was being prepared at our store since that's where we cook lunch for everybody, including our staffs then one of our staffs just delivers their lunch to their school before 10am. For their snacks, they are already old enough to buy from their allowance. Haha
For my Kinder 2 nephew, not much of a rush since his classes starts from 12:30 to 4pm.
this is already too long of a comment but I'm not yet done. haha
all my nephews and nieces are already having face to face classes and me, on the other hand, only have online classes. I usually wake up at 10am, except on Thursday since that's my cooking schedule. And when I wake up, I'm already alone at home. Hehe
On my defense, I wake up late cuz I usually sleep at 4am. huhu
