The director of a northern Door County daycare facility says parents need to get kids ready to go back to school earlier than later. During summer break children are usually allowed more freedom and will get off the routine they had been doing during the school year. Karen Corekin-DeLaMer the Education and Community Relations Coordinator for Northern Door Children Center recommends starting to get your children back into the school routine a couple of weeks before school starts.

Getting your children on the routine early will help them prepare for getting up early in the morning and get used to the school schedule.
