What you’re getting

Small, practical and ready to print.

3.15 is not the time to make decisions. The Landing Card is a two-page printable PDF that decides the first twenty minutes after pick-up once, so you can just follow it.

Four steps: land (bags and shoes away), food first, quiet first, questions later. There's room for your usual snack and a backup, what ten quiet minutes look like in your house and when you'll talk about the day. Plus a question that works better than "How was school?".

Lots of kids hold it together all day and let it out at home. Food and quiet first usually help.

Inside
- Page 1: the landing card, plus a space for what helps on a big day.
- Page 2, Questions for later: twelve cut-out question cards for dinner, eleven ready to go and one blank. Keep them in a jar and pull one out.

Pairs with Out the Door for the other end of the school day.

Both colour styles are included: Classic (soft pastels, navy headings) and Warm (cream, charcoal and butter yellow). Use whichever suits your fridge.

Instant digital download. Nothing is shipped. Four fillable PDFs: A4 and US Letter, in both colour styles. Type in and print, or print blank and write.

Good to know: an everyday routine card for children about 4 to 10. It's not medical or behavioural advice.

Made by a dad and qualified teacher.

For use in your own home. Please don't resell or share the files publicly.
