Set out breakfast bowls and cereal the night before school
Pairs with packing the school bag the night before for a genuinely calm morning. Fewer than five independent reports so far, so it is still unverified — try it and file one.
Why it works
Morning breakfast prep competes directly with getting dressed and out the door on the same tight clock. Setting bowls, cutlery and non-perishable items out the night before removes that competition — only milk and any hot food are left for the actual morning.
Did it work for you?
One report per person. This is the only thing that moves the badge — there is no like button.
