Linda Chu was featured along with a few other professional organizers in the Vancouver area in an article entitled, Less Mess Distress. It’s back-to-school time! You can keep track of fall paraphernalia (and save time, as well) even though it is still summertime outside. The tips include:

• Limit the amount of art and homework you save for each child.
• Establish a daily backpack routine with your children.
• Use a whiteboard with grid lines to keep track of what homework is due, and when.
• Create a ‘command centre’ for incoming notices and school information.
• Use a rolling under-the-bed clothes drawer as a place to store outfits or uniforms.

Head on over to Savvy Mom to read the details on how to have Less Mess Distress.
