Arrangements For The House

The back to school season means coordinating every family member’s schedule and planning out meals for the week. Get organized quickly with these helpful ideas.

1. Establish a command center to help everyone stay organized. This can consist of a wall calendar, weekly meal planner, dry erase board for messages, younger kid visual schedule, chore chart, and a paper bin for important documents.
2. Designate an area of your home with an open wall and put up wall hooks. You can hang backpacks and work bags there, eliminating clutter around the home.
3. Create a homework station for children to concentrate on their school work. This could be a trifold display board that you can design or a pop-down table in their bedroom.
4. Post a morning and bedtime illustrated checklist for your younger children. Having this schedule will help the kids get into a daily routine.
5. Plan and prepare your weekly meals before the week starts. Preparing parts of your meals for the week on Sunday saves you time and money.
