Organization For Around The House

Back to school makes coordinating everyone’s schedule and meal prepping a priority. Get organized in a hurry with some of these valuable tips found below.

  1. Set up a morning and bedtime schedule with an illustrated checklist for your children. This will help their daily routines.
  2. Create a command center that the whole family can benefit from. Post a wall calendar, weekly meal planner, chore chart, younger kids’ visual schedule, and a dry erase board for messages.
  3. Construct a homework station for children so they can concentrate on their school work. A trifold display board works perfect and is an easy clean up as it folds away so you can store it almost anywhere.
  4. Plan out and prepare your weekly meals. On Sunday you can prep part of each meal for the upcoming week, saving you time and money.
  5. Download apps like Here Comes the Bus and myHomework. This helps you get to the bus on time and making sure you know when your homework and other assignments are due.
