How to Make a Morning Routine During the Coronavirus Pandemic (for Homeschooled Girls)

Sorting Out Your Routine

Figure out your routine. Due to the COVID-19 situation, you will mostly have fewer things to do and might get bored too. Since you likely won't go to school, dress up too well, or will hang out with your friends, you will have to make a routine in which you can keep yourself occupied, and can find time for the important things too.

Make a checklist. Try making a checklist for your daily routine. Add all the important things you do daily, like attending online classes, finishing your chores, and doing homework. You can then add a few things that you have to do on time like studying for a test. After you are done with each duty, you can put a tick on your checklist, which can help you maintain and make sure that your everyday work is done.

Find time to do things that you enjoy. During such a situation, you'd want to find time to do things that you love, and strive to do such as art, dancing, singing, and making videos for YouTube. These things should be done, but you must do work which is important and necessary first, and find time for the other things later.Tip: Try making a timetable to help you maintain your schedule, and let you find time for doing things you love to do.

Doing The Average Things You Do In a Routine

Do not oversleep either, as it can affect your daily schedule, and can make you feel grumpy for the rest of the day. Tip: Sleep and wake up at the same time. If you sleep and wake up at the same time, for example, you sleep at 7:00 p.m and wake up at 7:00 a.m, the quality of our sleep can improve, and help us to feel inspired, invigorated and alert throughout the day.

Make your bed. Making your bed daily will make it much more comfortable and so much cleaner, especially if you plan to work in it throughout the day. You could add extra pillows, and blankets, or cuddly teddies/stuffed animals.
