Many parents discover that they struggle through the day to as their kids move from one activity to another. Transitions tend to be rough for kids and they are much more secure if they are in a normal rhythm through the day.
The kids schedule chart facilitates young families in planning the routine for their child's day. Whenever children have a predictable routine, anxiety is decreased and transitions are made far more easily. These charts allow both parent and child to share in setting an easy schedule for the day. They will help those children wanting to know, "What am I doing next?"
Schedule chart labeling can come with photos and/or words which will allow your son or daughter to correlate terms with pictures and assist in his or her first steps of reading.
Schedule charts are not merely created for the child, but for the mother as well. Charts can help the family keep an eye on the day and also help eliminate some of those flaky momma moments whenever you look around and there's so much to be done - making it hard to focus on a single thing. The activity labels also allow organization when there is open room in the day - whenever you could take a nature walk or perhaps do some painting with each other. The use of magnetic labels you have will make it impossible to over-schedule.
The kids schedule chart can be made from almost anything. We've identified they are created best out of heavy canvas board. We use lots and lots of Mod Podge as we create the charts. Using Mod Podge was tough initially, but after a few quick searches on the web we found there are certain ways to use Mod Podge to keep out the bubbles that we kept seeing under the high-quality watercolor paper. For the labels, we now have found that art board seems to work well. It takes a strong hand to cut through all of them; nevertheless, it's definitely worth the effort to have labels that won't fold and bust. We have recently used a cutting board that seems to also help in preparing the labels.
As to the design, you can use just about anything that will keep the attention of your child. We started with owls, ladybugs, footballs, and trees. We found the tree the best for our family. We appreciate the image of the tree as it relates to life, simplicity, beauty, connection, and growth. It is a blessing to all who see it and find rest in its shade.
