The magic of a family command centre: get organized!

11/12/2015

0 Comments

 
I am still in the mood to improve the organization in my home (see my last post about entryways), and why wait for the New Year to make some resolutions, one of them probably being "become more organized"?
If you feel overwhelmed by school forms, loose receipts and more, act now!
Actually, I am writing this post for self-motivation and after sharing this post, I will go and systematize my little cupboard to turn it into a mini family command centre! 
We are all keeping track of our kids' activities, school events and family chores in our own ways. Some are pretty good at managing their calendar on mobile devices, but I am one of those who like to have a visual/physical overlook. Enter: Family Command Centre.

Here are the elements that you will need in your command centre:
1- Monthly calendar

2 - Folders:
>one for each member of the family
>one for tickets or events
>one for important receipts

3 - A place to write messages, easy to see by the family:
>chalkboard, a painted chalkboard wall, a dry erase board

4 - A place to recharge your mobile devices

5 - A place to collect keys

6 - A container to collect pens
​

7 - A container to store sunglasses (I always run after my sunnies!)
