Summary: It's August, and it is almost time for kids to go back to school. For parents, this is a stressful time of year, as summertime habits need to quickly turn into school year habits. Once the year starts, things get chaotic with challenges getting your child through their morning routine and on the bus, difficulty with your child remembering what is for homework, and ultimately getting that homework done before bedtime. To help our busy moms and dads we have welcomed four organizers from Organize Right Now's Online Team to share their best Back to School organizing tips. They all subscribe to the philosophy that creating a solid foundation of organizing skills for your child early on will pay future dividends as they mature into adults. They also believe that, contrary to what is often practiced, children are capable of being responsible, contributing members of the home at a young age. Which makes your job as a parent easier as your child takes on more responsibility for their own daily tasks. Our Organizing Panel consists of: Britt Morris of A Tidy Solution in Central Maine; Paris Love of Organize with Love in Orange Beach, Alabama; Darcy Munzer of Organize 4U in Kansas City, Missouri; Lea Schneider of Organize Right Now in Pensacola, Florida; and our very own Bonnie Dewkett of The Joyful Organizer in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Check out our prizes that you can win by subscribing to the Organize Right Now Newsletter, blogging about this show and including a link, and tweeting about this show and including a link in your tweet.
