As I’ve mentioned before, my goal in life is for things to be simple and easy. With school starting soon (or perhaps it already kicked off), I recommend taking 30 to 45 minutes to set up a temporary school work station for your kid(s). Designing a system for all things related to school will:

• provide clear boundaries for the start and end of the school day

• provide a clear location where all things related to school “live”

Earlier this summer, I offered a free virtual organizing workshop to support you in setting up a temporary workstation for your kid(s). This workshop will help you whether you have a dedicated space for school, such as a desk in your kid’s room, or a temporary space, such as your kitchen counter, where you want your kid(s) to pack up their school stuff everyday.
