Here in Lincoln, there are early start schools (8:00) and late start schools (9:00). It is structured this way because of the bussing system and who knows what else. Either way, we happen to be at a late start school.
You'd think we wouldn't be rushing every morning to get everyone out the door.
Trust me, it's not because I'm not getting up early enough.🤪 But having four kids (some with ADD/ADHD) dressed, fed, brushed, shoed, lunched, and backpacked plus four more kids diapered, dressed, fed, fed
again, diapered again - well. We're thankful for a 9:00 start.
No matter how many kids you have and what time you have to get them out the door (or to the table if you homeschool) - I think having an efficient breakfast system is really helpful.
Here's something I tried a few years ago and not only does it save time, it saves brain energy so we don't have to always think so hard.
