We know this has gone on for WEEKS now.
Our little ones especially may have become restless and need a
little help to stay at their best. Try creating a Reward Chart
for each one. Customize it with chores they can do, homework
goals, and acts of kindness they show to one another. Then,
give them a reward to work toward with their good behavior and
helping around the house.
