Parents should avoid panic mode when their child comes home from school and announces that the science project they knew about, but you did not, is due the next day. Every parent knows that the lecture at this point mixed in with a heavy dose of yelling, is not what you are supposed to do. But, we all do it anyway. So, after all of that is vented, the parent needs to keep panic at bay, and make the most of the time you have to finish this less than 24 hour science project. Panic mode can just about assure there will be tears, arguments and and possibly an all-nighter for a project that the child watched the parent mostly do. One day science fair projects can be done!

Here are ten tips to help prevent parent panic.

Check the book bag immediately. If the 24 Hour Science Project Gods are on your side there will be specific instructions. This is where you cross you fingers and hope that the project was not supposed to be checking results over a two or three day period. Put the child to work with the rest of his homework while you scope out the requirements for the one day science fair project! Search the papers you found for a directions and a supply list. If there is one, do not assume you have anything, get it in front of you so you can see it. Send someone to the store to buy anything that is needed. That person is in charge of bringing home fast food. Quietly put a pot of coffee on, and then out of hearing from your child call another mother in the class, that will not laugh too hard when you ask for details. If you need to design your own project go online and search for one day science fair projects and look for a teacher created product that fits the criteria of your assingment. Make sure it has all the pieces needed, research, data entry sheets, easy to follow instructions. Buy it, this is not the time to search high and low for the free stuff. Download it to your computer and print. While the child is finishing her homework, and you are waiting for the supplies and fast food, take a moment to yourself and go get changed into your comfy feel good clothes. Once homework is finished, and the food and supplies are back and everything is gathered, place the directions in front of him, and talk him through the project. You sit with the coffee, he does the work. Since time is a factor there are a few things you can do to help move things along. If something needs typed up, you can help by typing word for word what you are told to write. You might also do things like help paste papers onto a poster board.

Remember your child is in panic mode too, so set the example for calm less than 24 hours science projects and encourage them along the way. The next day is the time for the lecture and to let them know what an inconvenience all that was, and to problem solve so it does not happen again. These one day science fair projects will be a story you can tell your grandchildren one day.
