Meet #Captaincake Author Chris Skinner, a financial technology expert and author. Chris read stories to his twin boys every night. As they got older it became a challenge to find age-appropriate adventure stories for them so he came up with stories inspired by their imagination

#10 Celebrate a new school year! If you celebrate going back to school and the small wins in the first month, your kids will see back-to-school as a transition they can really enjoy. Try a back-to-school party, complete with cake, balloons and educational gifts. #captaincake

#9 Talk about the first few week jitters Reassure your child that being nervous is natural, even for teachers. You can help your child cope with these feelings when you let them express their fears. Perhaps you can offer stories of your own first-day jitters when you were a child

#8. Map it out. If your kids are starting at a new school, practice walking or driving to the bus stop or to the school building a week or two before school starts. You could even play in the school playground before school starts. This creates fun memories associated with school

#7. Limit screen time. Back to school is the perfect opportunity to re-establish screen time limits. Why not have the whole family “unplug” in the evenings before bedtime? Find a spot where everybody can charge their devices overnight. #picturebook #captaincake #childrensfiction

#6. Establish healthy habits. Involve your children in choosing and preparing healthy lunches and snacks. Help them find physical activities they enjoy. Take them shopping for healthy snacks and lunch items they can pack themselves. Try to stick to regular meal times. #learning

#5. Talk about safety. Review outdoor safety rules – things like looking both ways before crossing the street, taking the same route every day if they are walking, familiarizing themselves with crosswalk rules, and being cautious in talking to strangers. #kidsbooks #kidsliteracy

#4. Choose the right backpack. Backpacks that are too heavy or worn improperly could result in muscle strain, headaches, and neck pain. Try to choose a backpack made of sturdy, lightweight fabric with wide, padded straps that will support your child’s shoulders. #forkids #library

#3. Encourage independence. Children who play an active role in preparing for back to school – such as choosing and organising school supplies and new clothes – are more likely to get excited about going back to school, which in turn eases their jitters. #picturebook #forkids

International Literacy Day is an international observance, celebrated each year on 8 September, that was declared by UNESCO on 26 October 1966 at the 14th session of UNESCO's General Conference. It was celebrated for the first time in 1967. #kidsbooks #preorder #kids #reading

#2 Re-establish a routine. Establishing a consistent routine is important for kids. Write out the steps in the routine and rehearse them with your child. In the evening, this could include doing homework, playtime, brushing their teeth, having a bath, and reading before bed.

Whatever their age, many kids are apprehensive about starting school or going back to school. The good news is there’s a lot you can do to ease their minds and help them ease into a new school year #1 “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise!”#kidsbooks

Happy back to school! Best wishes for the 2022-2023 season. #kidsbooks #preorder #kids #reading #kids #childrenbook #newbook #picturebook #captaincake #childrensfiction #childrenillustration #childrensbooks #childrensbookillustration #kidsliteracy #kidsfiction #youngreaders
