Regardless of where the supply situation is, it is now the time to start getting your children back into the routines (reading, math, going to bed on time) of going back to school. I know, I know…you’re probably dreading this. However, here are some painless back-to-school tips to get back to it.

Truth be told, kids running around, riding bikes, and playing sports in the summer months are generally safe. But accidents happen, and kids are going to get hurt.
