Has your child just started reception? 🎒

Settling into school is easier when children have simple routines and feel confident. To help with this, you can try:

limiting screen time 📱
chatting together about their school day 💬
keeping a calm, consistent bedtime.
Waking up at the same time each morning can make school starts feel much smoother 😴

If you need advice or support, staff at your local Family Hub are always here to help. For more information on supporting your child's early education, visit Buckinghamshire Family Information Service website 👉 https://ow.ly/6uCg50YGY1K
