There are 28 task cards that include the most common morning tasks like making the bed, getting dressed, eating breakfast and packing a backpack. You can choose from the regular Letter size (8.5’ x 11”) that’s easy to print at home, or opt for the larger Ledger size (11” x 17”) that some at-home printers can handle, or can be uploaded to an online printing service. The chart comes in two colors (pink and light blue), and 2 sizes. The Morning Routine Printable includes everything you see above: the chart template that you’ll use to build your routine + your task cards. Pin for when you’re ready for stress-free mornings: WHAT YOU GET (FOR FREE!) This will not only boost your child’s confidence and give them a sense of accomplishment, but will lessen the overall stress level of your mornings, and help everyone get out the door on time. So instead of waking up and wondering, “what do I do now?”, your kids can easily stay on track, and work towards independently completing their chart. This free checklist is completely customizable to your desired daily routine, and visually shows your child what tasks they need to do next. We’ve partnered with ForaCare, the healthcare technology specialists (and maker of our favorite IR42 thermometer…more on this later!), to bring you the easy solution: our printable Morning Routine Chart. While you could do a lot of hand holding, nagging (see above), and giving instructions, we found there’s a better way to help your children establish a strong morning routine.

So what feels like clockwork to you (get up, go to the bathroom, brush teeth, get dressed, make bed, have breakfast, etc.) isn’t yet ingrained into your child’s “muscle” memory. Unlike adults, kids have yet to establish strong natural routines when they wake up. If this feels all too familiar, you’re not alone. Looking to reduce your stress in the morning and have your children be more independent? Our free printable Morning Routine Checklist can help!Īre mornings hectic at your house? Are you constantly reminding your kids to do the same things over and over?
