Five routines, one engine

Morning

Up, washed, dressed, fed, out. The workhorse.

Getting ready to go

Practice, lessons, a birthday party. A short list for leaving the house: gear, water, shoes.

Coming along for the ride

The sibling who is not doing the activity still needs shoes on. A two-step routine for the child who is just coming with you.

Homework

Per child, per day, off when there is none, and checked by you rather than by a checkbox.

Wind down

Bath, teeth, pajamas, settle. The morning engine, run gently in reverse.

Start with one

Most families begin with just the morning and add the rest once it's habit. Trellis doesn't rush you either.
