Mom Organization

Everyone’s world is turned upside down right now. Parents are working from home, kids are home from school, and life as we knew it changed in a blink with the arrival of COVID-19.

So, what’s a parent to do? We want to take great care of our children and, at the same time, continue doing our due diligence to meet the expectations of our employers.

So many folks are asking for a way to help their child know what to expect during the day, and my teacher heart agrees that children need a semblance of familiarity and structure when times are uncertain. So, I created some very simple editable picture cards that can be arranged and posted somewhere in your home to help your child know what will happen during your day.

I hope these cards will be a help to you and ease the burden of providing some clear structure for your family during the days ahead.

Here are a few tips to help you best use the cards:

1. Be flexible. Use only the cards you need for the day. Understand that plans may change, and that might “rock the boat” for your child. They need extra grace right now too.
2. Do the best you can. No day will be perfect. The best laid plans sometimes fail. And that’s ok. But having a plan sets up a positive intention and helps establish workable “boundaries” for the day!
3. Adapt as needed. When things fall apart, PIVOT! Make a change! These cards are not meant to be the “rule” for the day. Think of them more as a guide on an adventure field trip! These are things you want to do, and can provide a great map for the day, but it’s ok to make diversions as needed!
