Are all the papers a little overwhelming?

Do you get overwhelmed with all the papers and homework that your kids bring home from school? Sometimes they hand it to you right when you are not able to give it the attention it needs. A good solution is to designate a place in your home where only these bulletins, project notifications, or papers to be signed will be placed. It needs to be a place where you won’t forget about them but also a place where they won’t get crumpled or spilled on. This can be a basket in a central place or a clipboard for each child on a wall. Teach your children to take the papers out of their backpack each day after school and place them in the designated spot, then you can review them at a more convenient time.
