It is officially back to school week at the Tyree house so I’ve decided that it is also back to school organizing week!
What this means is that I’ve got some fun giveaways all week (Monday – Friday). Today’s giveaway is at the end of this post. The others can be found on Instagram and Facebook. Hop on over there to enter to win!
In other news, and because it IS back to school “season,” I wanted to highlight some of my best tips for keeping you and your kids organized.
Here are five tips for how to rock back to school like a boss!
(1) Designate one Memory/Keepsake box for all larger items like trophies, big pieces of art, and favorite toys.
(2) Create a Memory/Keepsake box (like the one I’m giving away right now!) for school paperwork, achievements, and MORE. This is one of the best ways to easily sort and store all things school, sports, and hobby related.
(3) Consider using a book like this to help keep track of special information. I’ve had mine forever but you can find something similar on Amazon. (Just search “school memories/keepsakes.”)
(4) Set up a paper system, a command center, or whatever you want to call it to sort and organize any and all school paperwork that you know is coming your way!!! You can see some of my tips HERE.
(5) Menu plan, menu plan, menu plan. The more you plan for your meals the smoother your weeks will go. I promise. With busy weeknights that get filled with all kinds of commitments it’s so helpful to know that there is plan for dinner. I’ve shared some great ideas HERE.
And, like I mentioned there is a GIVEAWAY today! My sweet friend Lori just launched her new book. It is called Messy Parenting.
I couldn’t agree more! Isn’t that how parenting feels?
You’ll love how Lori encourages you to effectively strengthen your family connections. This is a great book that will help you in all aspects of your parenting. It is full of practical tips and tools that you can start using immediately. You’ll love this book!
