Set a morning routine.
Let your child gain some independence but set boundaries and limits.

According to William Glasser, author or The Quality School,
                             We Learn…
             10% of what we read
             20% of what we hear
             30% of what we see
             50% of what we both see and hear
             70% of what we discuss with others
             80% of what we experience personally
             95% of what we teach someone else
