The routine of school calms ADHD and our household

Oh, do I love school.

It's not just that I'm seeing my kids grow and learn and that they seem to be having a great time while they're learning. And it's not just that I have gotten my life back and have time to take care of household chores and time to myself.

It feels great to have a routine again.

Morning:
7:15 am wake up and dress
7:20: breakfast
7:30 brush teeth, make beds
7:40: put on shoes, put lunch in backpack
7:45 go outside to wait for bus

Afternoon:
3:00 pm bus drop off
3-3:30 snack and relax time
3:30-4:30 homework and reading
6-8:00 TV time
6:30 (ish) dinner
8:00 Jessica to bed
9:45 Clark to bed

And Clark has basketball on Tuesdays, Jessica has gymnastics on Thursdays.

So the basic schedule every day is regimented and clear. Routine helps ADHD kids. And both my kids know what the schedule every day, they know what's expected of them.

Now on to fixing the weekends....
