Now that Hippo is going to school, I thought he could use an aid in helping him get ready in the morning. So I created a visual checklist for him and also included instructions in German. As he starts learning to read, those words will become more helpful!

The routine includes the following four steps:

• Zieh dich an (get dressed)
• Wirf deinen Schlafanzug in den Wäschekorb (put your pajamas in the laundry basket)
• Mach dein Bett (make your bed)
• Putz dir die Zähne (brush your teeth)
