    S4E5: After Back to School

    Back to school is often an exciting time for kids because they get to see their friends, get new school supplies and sometimes clothes, meet new teachers, and get a fresh start. Then, there is after back to school. For some kids, the "honeymoon phase" of back to school can be very short lived and for other kids, it can be weeks or months before they get school fatigue and need a break. We talk about what to do when back to school excitement wears off.
