Summer's coming... some thought now can save you weeks of chaos.
Create summer rhythms that balance fun AND real life responsibilities, so you can make memories with your kids.
Summer feels so...romantic.
Doesn't it?
We think of the warm weather, bright sunshine, and opportunities for lifetime memories.
We imagine everyone:
-
Taking nice strolls eating ice cream.
- Swimming, splashing, and laughing together.
- Playing happily outside (or reading books!).
- Sleeping late... zzzzzz.
- Exploring and enjoying one another's company in new places.
You start off strong.
Then, in 10 days, you're a shell of your former self because...
I think we can agree...
...we do NOT want these shenanigans happening all daggum day this summer:
Snacking 24/7.
Constant chaos from lack of routine.
Whining and bickering non-stop because everyone's bored.
Daily screen-time marathons because you're losing it.
Screaming and yelling (you or the kids).
Grinding to entertain the kids all day as they recite, "mom, Mom, MOM!"
Couch potato kids not doing chores.
Too much time invested in meal prep/planning.
Overscheduled busyness.
Constant sibling fighting that makes you want to hide in a closet.
Thankfully, you can avoid that drama.
Introducing:
Create daily routines that balance fun and memory making with the responsibilities of daily life.
Our Summer Rhythms workshop will show you how to:
BALANCE fun with productive days where everyone's needs are met.
Create a good mix of routines, chores and simple fun activities that don't require constant parent involvement.
Encourage independence, responsibility and cooperative sibling play.
We want you to have one of the best summers of your family's history.

If there's one thing that's true it's this... I have done summers All Wrong and barely lived to tell about it. I abandoned routine because I wanted the days to feel free and easy, but ended up with too much chaos, too little structure, and the Big Fat Temptation to stick the kids in front of the TV too often just to get some peace.
This summer, we ain't going down that road.
This summer, we are going to have enough routine to meet everyone's needs AND build in anchor points throughout the week and weekend that make room for fun and connection.

It's time to create realistic Summer Rhythms that keep mama sane!
Here's what to expect after putting our routines in place:
Simple but meaningful adventures together.
Relaxation without the stir crazy, no cabin fever!
A good mix between independent activities for the kids and more structured activities.
Routines that help you stay on top of chores so things don't feel too stressful.
Rejuvenating down time so everyone is refreshed, not sitting on a screen all day.
And we'd love to get you there.
Summer Rhythms will get the most out of summer.
Making room for fun without being over scheduled (which leaves you exhausted and impatient).
Our workshop explaining how to plan your days, weeks, and months in one or two sittings. On any budget. For any size family.
Weekly time block sheets to help you block out what needs to happen so you can make room for the extras.
Not To Do List template where we'll explain exactly why and how to empty your plate a bit so you're able to enjoy this summer with your kids.
No Screen Time Until template you can use and fill out to help avoid screen time battles and screen time babysitting... that makes you feel guilty when the sun goes down.
Summer Bucket List ideas that are simple, inexpensive, and perfect to pull out of the hat when the kids are stir crazy.
Easy kid friendly recipe ideas for DIY breakfast, snacks, lunch, dinner, and desserts. Your kids can even learn some kitchen skills!
The days are long, but the years are short.
Let's make the most of this summer, shall we?

In our Summer Rhythms workshops, we'll show you step-by-step how to plan well.
Watch one per day (or binge watch) & get started on your summer plans ASAP!
Create semi-scheduled days so you're free to enjoy summer fun without all the chaos that comes from no plan.
Set anchor points within your weeks and weekends to be sure a balanced level of structure and adventure exists.
Make realistic chore systems without nagging and punishment. Even though it's summer...the house don't run itself.
Establish "wake up times" that anyone toddler aged and up can keep so mama ain't getting up at 5 am for no reason.
Keep a Not To Do List so you can be intentional with your summer and not waste it on things that don't matter.
Manage boredom which - of course - leads to fighting and outrageous messes.
Plan your days so everyone has a peaceful summer and isn't fighting like cats and dogs OR in front of a screen for 10 hours a day.

How much time is required?
In as little as a few hours (maybe less if you speed us up, ha!) you can learn the principles and put them all down on paper.
I already did Family Routines Reboot... is this the same thing?
