As a busy mum juggling countless responsibilities, finding time for yourself and your young children to play and bond can often feel like a daunting challenge. The good news is that there is a simple yet effective strategy that can help you take control of your day and create more opportunities for joy and relaxation: schedule blocking.
What is Schedule Blocking?
Schedule blocking is a time management technique that involves dividing your day into blocks of time dedicated to specific tasks or activities. By proactively planning out your day in advance and allocating specific time slots for different responsibilities, you can enhance your productivity, reduce stress, and ensure that you have time for both work and play.
1. Morning Routine Block: Start your day by creating a morning routine block that includes tasks like breakfast preparation, getting the kids ready for school or activities, and tidying up the house. By setting aside a specific block of time for these activities, you can establish a sense of structure and ensure that you start your day on the right foot.
2. Playtime Block: Dedicate a block of time in the mid morning, afternoon or evening for playtime with your children. Whether it’s engaging in creative activities, reading together, or playing outside, having a designated playtime block allows you to bond with your little ones and create lasting memories without distractions.
3. Self-care Block: Don’t forget to schedule some time for yourself! Create a self-care block in your day where you can relax, unwind, and focus on activities that rejuvenate you, such as exercising, reading a book, or practicing mindfulness. Taking care of yourself is essential for maintaining your well-being and being the best mum you can be.
