The idea is to note all the events that mark the month in a shared online diary in order to distribute the ” mental charge Of the month of June equally between men and women. Feast of the crèche, football match, theater rehearsal, etc. All with great time precision (always indicate a time 5 minutes in advance). Without forgetting the address (by checking the means of parking) and practical information (example: “Children must wear a YELLOW t-shirt”). Do not omit the “re-registrations” for activities for next year which are often recommended as early as June.
Distribute roles
Be reasonable, you will not be able to accompany the school trip at the zoo, hold the mess everything up fair, take photos at the dance gala, help backstage at the show and make a tennis ball shaped chocolate cake on the weekend. It is better immediately to distribute the roles in the couple (using colors in the diary: green for dad, blue for mom) and even within the family! Uncles and tatas, grandparents, close friends can also serve as an audience or attentive companion for the kids.
Save time on other tasks
The hustle and bustle of festive events takes time, that’s a fact. You must therefore admit once and for all the need to let go of the ballast on other “stations” of daily life. Examples: making a huge shipment of frozen foods to facilitate meal, forget to iron all the clothes, reduce the household essential tasks (bathroom / toilet, vacuum cleaner). On the professional side, do not hesitate to ask a RTT or a vacation to have time to organize yourself and really enjoy the moments without running.
Prepare your ammunition
Preparation of cakes easy for parties, stocks of juices to always have something to bring when invited, children’s books for all ages for children birthday gifts (with gift wrap in stock) are safe ammo for June. Do not forget to make room on your cameras/smartphones.
Be united between parents
For the trips back and forth to show rehearsals, birthdays at the park across town, needing costumes or props for a party, and anything that takes up a lot of your time, get along with them. parents of friends. If possible in advance in order to reduce the level of stress.
Plan for downtime
The advice applies to both you and the children, who are at risk exhaustion from going to bed at 23pm, after eating sausages / chips with makeup smeared on my face. If some weekends in June are free, do not add anything, especially! Take advantage of the good weather to do simple things: walks, meals outside, quiet games. At a pinch, you can anticipate July / August by “checking” the business for bags, medical appointments to be scheduled before departure…. And if you have a solution keep, treat yourself to the luxury of going on a romantic getaway far from all the fun of June.
