From the first year of school to the last, it’s important to help your kids prepare for a productive and successful academic year — and that involves tackling some health-related to-dos before they head back to the classroom.
Here, we offer back-to-school health tips to nurture healthy habits and help your kids have a great school year.

Adequate sleep is critical for your kids’ success in school, helping them concentrate, learn and get to school on time every day.2 You can help them get the sleep they need by creating a calming bedtime routine, which might include reading time, a warm bath or tuck-ins, depending on their age.2
