Create good habits, and you won't have to nag.
Ever feel like you spend the hours after school nagging, nagging, nagging your kids to do their homework? Here are some quick tips for getting the homework done without the Big Nag:
Schedule it in: Our kids do their homework after dinner every night, so there are no surprises. When they have soccer games at night, they know they have to get homework done before it's time to put on their cleats and go.
Write it down: I put my kids' work for the night on a chalkboard, so they know what's coming. That way, they're aren't surprised by an extra worksheet or a book report that's due tomorrow.
Check it together: It helps you identify where they need work, yes, but it also gives you a chance to pat them on the back for getting the work done. And who doesn't need a pat on the back now and then?
