Our Schedule
Here is our family schedule currently. I received a lot of questions on this! I hope this will serve as help to your family.
SCHEDULE
Kennedy WAKE UP
• Bible + Prayer + Quiet Time
• Coffee/ Tea
KIDS WAKE UP ( time varies, the goal is 8:30- 9:00 AM)
BREAKFAST ( 9:00-10:00)
We like to rotate a few breakfast items.
CIRCLE TIME Naim*- TUMMY TIME *Kiya ( 10:00 -11:00 AM)
We like circle time with Mrs. Monica (youtube)
POTTY BREAK AND SNACKS (11:30 AM)
Here is where I sneak in healthy snacks
INDEPENDENT PLAY (12:00- 1:45)
• Leggos
• Games on the pad
• Trucks
LUNCH (1:45-2:45 PM)
I don’t force lunch, if he doesn’t eat it ill give it to him when he wakes up from his nap
NAP (2:45-4:45 PM)
While the kids are sleep, I pick one high-quality thing to do. Read, cook, write, talk to a friend, or exercise.
FLASHCARDS, NUMBERS, OUTSIDE ACTIVITY (4:45-6:30 PM)
Here is where I prepare and think about dinnertime.
BATH TIME (7:00-7:30 PM)
If Tarik is home, he bathes Naim and I bathe Kiya. If he is out, I bathe Naim here and then bathe Kiya when he’s down for bed. If I’m reeeealy optimistic I’ll do it during his nap.
DINNER (7:30- 8:00 PM)
• Prayers
• Reading
- Time with Tarik
Some things I try to fit in when I have the help:
x Quiet Time with God
( I do this everyday, but obviously it can be challenging to spend long periods of time with the kiddos.)
x Coffee break
x Lunch date/ Dinner date with Tarik
x Girl time with friends
x Vlogging
x Cooking a fun meal
x Exercise
A schedule can seem restricting at first, but when done right it creates the freedom and consistency you and your family may need!
