5. On the way to school/ the bus stop talk about what each of you will be doing that day.
Walk through what you might be planning to do that day. An important meeting. Cleaning a specific room. Going to the grocery store to make a favorite dinner that might await them when they get home. Keep your day a little on the boring- chore related side to nip any FOMO feelings. Invite your child to share some things they might be doing that first day. "What do you think you will do first today? "This is also a great time to give any reminders. "I put your snack in your front pocket today!" "Dad will pick you up from the bus stop after school. "
