1. Each child packs their backpack with everything needed for the next day (minus perishable food).

[{"selector":"#anim-42d6e835-6bd0-41e0-ae28-f53c4ae1a605","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0c67c28b-b453-425c-93e6-f0bb1b9c436f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 130.56967%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

2. Each child sets aside their outfit for the next day. This especially helps for school spirit week, P.E. schedules, etc.

[{"selector":"#anim-b039ba0c-d006-4d66-ae93-5b434e897d51","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d7be21b2-df52-4566-b8f2-4b8435492c1c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 131.02638%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

3. Each child plans out what they'll have for breakfast and lunch the next day.

[{"selector":"#anim-3bf709c2-ac1f-4442-96c2-ef6df42f9c22","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-668fb2cc-16a2-4794-a016-bfa535580232","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 148.56741%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

If they're able to help prepare any parts of their breakfast or lunch then they do so! Overnight oats is a favorite over here.
