I can’t believe summer is right around the corner! And I don’t know about you but we’re so ready!
This year I thought we would get things ready ahead of schedule.
I’ve updated our routine as they have grown into pre-teens and even the color change was a request this year.
Creating a schedule that fits into your family is a great way to keep consistency in the home.
Now that things are getting back to normal once again, it’s time to up the routine.
In my opinion when we keep a schedule things just go a lot smoother and we have much more fun during the summer months.

The most important reason to keep a summer schedule for kids is that they thrive with consistency. Consistency allows children to know what to expect throughout their day.
My girls love knowing what is expected of them and what they are to do next throughout their day.
Plus, they are used to having a schedule or routine. When they go to school I can guarantee they have a set routine they follow every day in their classroom.
Having a schedule will also make parenting simple when kids know when to do chores or to read for 30 minutes.
One of the things that I believe in is that your schedule should fit into your everyday life.
What I mean by that is that you don’t create a schedule and then try to fit your regular life into a busy schedule. Plus, being busy is subjective, isn’t it?
Look at the activities that you have planned for your kids and the family. Then add your schedule to that.
That’s why when you look at our schedule there is no time because these are things my girls can do throughout the day. Though for the most part, they both have created their own routines on when to do online schoolwork or read a book.
You will also notice that the final reward for my girls completing their tasks is by being able to get on their electronics.
It’s a great incentive for them to complete the list of everyday learning habits that will only help them succeed during the school year.
Remember, create your schedule according to what fits into your family’s life. Many of us are working from home still and sports/activities have been canceled. This is a great way to keep kids knowing what to do next while parents work.
Below you will find my Free Daily Summer Schedule Printable.
I’ve also included my Reading Log printable to help kids keep track of summer reading, a blank schedule to fill in as you see fit, and my Age-Appropriate Chore Chart.
I cannot emphasize that enough! Our routine allows my girls to do what is expected of them.
Believe me, it’s not always smooth, but for the most part, it keeps Mommy happy! This means no upset Mom.
Side note, reading is such a HUGE important task for all kids to do during summer break!
Before summer break this is the one thing I emphasized the most to my classroom parents. I asked them to make sure my students were reading for at least 30 minutes every single night.

Having a daily morning and evening routine in our home has saved my sanity moms!
So, here’s a look at what our day usually looks like while my daughters follow their daily schedule. Also, keep in mind that when you look at our schedule television is not included in our electronics not able to be used before the schedule is complete, but that’s just us.

Remember, don’t worry about what someone else’s schedule looks like. Create a summer schedule for your kids that fits into your life and daily summer routines.
Plus, having a schedule will keep your kids knowing what to do next and Mama less stressed.
Does your family have a summer schedule?
