Routines are great for any transition through the day. There are stages in child development, though, when all transitions become more difficult for kids to deal with. Even then, the more defined the routine, the more quickly the phase passes. You’re right Mike.

Routines help a lot, too. We have a definite routine when we leave the house when our daughter is awake. Hug, kiss, one high five with each hand and then she waves from the window as we drive away. We very rarely have trouble when we do the routine correctly. She is used to the routine and it makes it much easier on us when she doesn't protest us leaving the house.
