Those of us who love to plan our children's studies know all to well that the challenge begins when the plans must be followed in real time. Fussy babies, sick preschoolers, moody teens and an elderly parent 200 miles away certainly made it rough for me at times. If you need some inspiration for organizing your children's plans, these links are for you.
The Avilian Routine and method saved us from stress-filled days for many years.
Lisa uses a similar approach, but makes use of a folder system instead of binders.
If folders appeal to you and organization is one of your favorite hobbies, check out Dawn's elaborate File Crate System. She has numerous posts on this, so be sure to poke around her beautiful site.
Jen's Living Learning offers another approach for maintaining a peaceful home routine.
Barb over at Harmony Art Mom reminds us to keep it simple with her approach for organizing the school year with older children.
The Workbox System is ideal for children who use a lot of hands-on material. Twenty years ago a group of used shoe boxes for a similar approach. If you aren't to sure if this system will work for you, visit your shoe store and try it out first.
As always, visit Donna Young for all your homeschool forms.
