5 Quick tips to be a super mom
You're not a wonder mom - just a super mom who's balancing work and looking after the kids and running a home. Research has found that the biggest challenge that the working moms face is balancing the time - so here are 5 tips to help you save time and be a super mom
1. Have a system where every one - pitches in : get your family involved in house hold tasks and encourage your kids to do some of their own work on time - packing their school bags every night and having them near the door will make it easier to add the lunch box and water bottle and leave on time in the morning. Reward your kids for doing more work around the house , and you will have a bunch of eager helpers.
2. Clear the clutter : a messy house makes your blood pressure boil over. So buy some cheap storage bins and collect the clutter during the week , and set aside a time every week when you clear it ( you can involve those helpers in the task too. !)
3. Bumpy mornings ? no more : special attention to your mornings . Make mornings smoother by doing much as you can the night before ( setting out clothes , packing school bags ) wake up at lest one hour before your child does, and plan your time to arrive every where at lest 15 minutes early ( you never will , but planning to do so will help you cope with traffic and arrive on time ).
4. Prioritise events : As a working mom, your not going to be able to attend every cricket match, netball game or elocution recital . But prioritise the events you will attend , including PTA meetings, so that you will be there that matter the most .
5. Create special times : Carve out small time slots with your family - it may be a quick visit to an ice - cream shop or an afternoon at the beach. Don't spend hours planning , just do it on the spur of the moment . Give your family special memories that will make you feel like the super mom you are !
