I searched high and low on Pinterest, blogs, podcasts, etc. and finally found it … the Block Schedule. This is a method that eliminates the hour-by-hour schedule that I felt would box me in, and let’s be honest, with a five year old and a one year old, it’s not likely that we would stick to that type of schedule.
This way you’re able to focus on a routine and not a specific schedule. Here is my example. You can download it for free below!
