Just as adults don't want to go back to work after a weekend or vacation, children don't want to go back to school after the holidays.
Repeating truisms, reminding that the child is studying so that later he will live an easy and happy life, is useless.
Experts have suggested to parents 5 clever ways to set up a child for returning to school. They work without fail.
First: the holidays are gone, but the impressions remain
Meeting with school is not only about homework and tests. First of all, children communicate with their peers here.
To have something to tell, help your child remember the most colorful moments of the summer holidays.
The desire to talk about it will drive away the gloomy associations associated with school.
Second: new school year – new rules
Starting school, moving to the next grade – all this should be perceived as growing up. This means that the child can be given new rights, responsibilities, and freedoms.
If he didn't have pocket money before, why not start the new school year with this joyful event?
Third: update your workspace
Nothing brings joy like new things. It could be a schoolchild's workplace, new accessories, or wardrobe items.
It is advisable to do all this together so that the joy of shopping extends to September 1st.
Fourth: Talk about why your child doesn’t want to go back to school.
The reason will most likely be the child's disorganization. Therefore, it is worth thinking about how to normalize his daily routine.
If you need to change anything, start right now, while there are still a couple of weeks left before school.
Fifth: don’t wait and don’t demand
You shouldn't expect that a child who promises to study well will immediately become an excellent student.
It is better not to demand anything from a schoolchild in the first days after the holidays. Just let him come to his senses and then everything will work out on its own.
