To the joy of some and grief of others, the children return to school and no doubt one of the things that get worse the first days are the early risers.
During the summer, we have relaxed with the schedules making bedtime more extended than usual and now it is hard to wake up when the alarm rings to go to school.
It is likely that on the first day your children woke up quickly, because of the excitement and nerves of returning to school, but on the second and third day, when it becomes usual, it is an odyssey to wake them up.
With the return to routine and extracurricular activities at the end of the day they fall, but despite sleeping enough hours, early risers get along very badly.
How to help them get up early
What we can do these first days to have a good rest, until they catch up, is advance dinner time and bedtime.
Have routines at the end of the day: Do physical exercise in the afternoon, followed by a relaxing bath and a light dinner will help children go to bed and favor a restful rest.
Wake up your son with caresses, hugs and kisses: You will have a better wake up if the first thing you see is your smile.
Use music to wake you up: It is usually a good resource to make the beginning of the day more bearable.
Wake him up with time: If your child is one of the people who find it difficult to adapt to the world in the morning, you can try to wake him up ten minutes before to open his eyes at his own pace. This way you will also prevent the mornings from being a hell and that the little one wakes up in a better mood.
An energizing breakfast: a varied and complete breakfast will help you recover energy and face the day with strength.
Once they catch the rhythm of the routine, the early risers will be more bearable, but in return, something not so desired by the parents happens, that on the weekends they are "scheduled" and also wake up early.
