Keep it simple: Pack a basic lunch so kids can learn to do it themselves. Only buy clothes that match. Keep on-the-go breakfasts, such as granola bars, in the car.
Keep it organized: Keep the car keys in the same spot by the door. Shoes are always in the closet, backpacks under the bed.
Delegate: Kids as young as 6 can pack their own lunches.
Plan ahead: Do chores the night before, such as packing lunches and showering.
Have a backup plan: Place an extra pair of shoes and jacket in the trunk.
