![]() After 2.5 years of getting my son ready for outdoor preschool, we have some pretty refined routines for getting ready. While I am able watch what other parents do with their kids when they arrive at school, we rarely get a chance to discuss what they're doing at home to get ready. I've never even THOUGHT about asking what they do the night BEFORE school, but the other day a parent posted a photo of her 3 kids wearing their base layers to bed. We also wear our base layer shirt to bed (because my son tends to get too hot at night for both top and bottom), so it was fun to see them doing something similar. Then I realized, what if other parents hadn't thought of this time-saving trick yet? Here are a few tips about how to prepare for outdoor preschool the Night Before School:

These are available as a free download through the Kinder.Earth Newsletter. Click here if you'd like me to email you this free PDF! It describes what we do the night before school, the morning of school, and when we get to school. - Teacher Kendall

Wow! This looks so helpful! We're a long way away from preschool but will keep these in mind for when our little one is in school. Some of these tips are things I would do for myself in high school when I would want to sleep in as late as possible!
