The last kid gets out, and the car is filled with silence – but only for a moment. It’s the first day of school, and soon the days will be filled with car lines, homework and extracurricular activities. This new season is busy and fun. As parents ourselves, here are some of the ways we thrive in it.
1. Easy mornings
From laying out clothes the night before to setting three alarms, we’re all about making mornings pain-free. Our favorite trick? Order a Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis® Tray the night before for an easy breakfast. Or pick up a 10-count Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis® on the way to school and pass it around the car to make sure everyone gets something to eat.
2. Lively commutes
Whether you’re sitting in the car line at school or driving from activity to activity, The Fun Lane™ podcast on the Chick-fil-A Play™ App makes the ride together a little more enjoyable. Interact with this game show style podcast featuring trivia, riddles and fun challenges.
3. After-school snacks
Do your kids get the afterschool hangries? Grab them Waffle Fries to dip into a Frosted Lemonade for a delicious after-school treat.
4. Homework breaks
It doesn’t matter if your child is learning to read or memorizing multiplication facts, homework can be tough on both kids and parents. Use the Joke Generator in the Chick-fil-A Play™ App to take a break from homework and keep things fun.
5. Flavorful dinners
Get the kids involved in making a flavorful meal – Sweet & Spicy Grilled Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Open the Chick-fil-A Play™ App and watch the video in the “Create” section. Follow along with the recipe to make these lettuce wraps at home.
6. Blissful bedtime routines
Snuggle up together and listen to the classic story of Peter Pan. Recorded to be kid-friendly and parent-approved, this audiobook, available in the “Listen” section of the Chick-fil-A Play™ App, is sure to spark your child’s imagination.
Add more family friendly fun to your day
No matter how busy your schedule, you can make more meaningful moments together with your favorite people. Check out the Chick-fil-A Play™ App for more ways to watch, play, create, listen and read together.
