LESS STRESS THIS SCHOOL YEAR
Switching gears from the carefree days of summer to back to school season can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Here are some tips to make back to school organizing a breeze!
CLEAN OUT THE CLOSETS
Now is a great time to take inventory of what clothes still fit, what can be handed down, or what needs to be bought for the new school year.
SET UP A LUNCH PREP STATION
Setting up a Lunch Prep Station in your kitchen can help you make the transition easier. Store all the items necessary for packing lunches and snack food.
NO MORE LATE FORMS
Create a family inbox for important paperwork that needs your signature and any other paperwork you need to see so it doesn't stay in their backpack or get lost.
Save time and money by planning dinner ahead of time with this meal planner. Knowing what's for dinner will leave you one less thing to worry about after school.

Keep your morning hassle-free and everything in its place with a family command center. You'll always know where your keys and important papers are located.
