You can do that by preparing the night before. For example, I'll have the kids pack up their backpacks, and lay out the school clothes/uniform, and make sure all of that is ready. Then, I place those by the door. So all we have to do in the morning is grab the lunches from the refrigerator, take the backpacks and out the door we go.

Tara's second tip is to conquer the clutter.

I have what I call a hopper, or basket on the kitchen counter. And that's where, and the kids know this too, everything important goes there. My keys go there, anything the kids need me to sign initial or take care of, it all goes in there. And it's the last thing I clean out every night.

Another time management makeover tip to use, is the master schedule, and list chores there too.

Probably the easiest way to save time is to create a family schedule. You want to have that schedule so when it comes time to drop the kids off, and run errands, you can look at the week ahead and schedule these things in, simultaneously.
