While children may be dreading it, parents welcome it. School days are almost here! What parents may not welcome is the chaos that can multiply when kids drop their school paraphernalia as they walk through the door.
For many homeowners, the laundry room/mud room is the first room the kids hit when coming home. Book bags, backpacks, shoes, jackets and other school related items compete with the laundry products and other “stuff” that may be stored in this small room. While summer may be a little more laid back, school days require more organization to get everyone out the door — clean, on time and with everything they need.
It’s time to organize the mud room
Using the proper storage items can make all the difference. When kids have places to put their things, they will be more likely to do so. Also, book bags, backpacks and school supplies that are more accessible will make it easier for them to find when they need to do their homework.
Even the smallest mud/laundry room can be outfitted with the baskets, cabinets and shelves that will keep everything in order.
By using a space-saving wall-mounted organization system, items that may have landed on the floor before can be safely hung. These systems come with a wide variety of hooks, baskets, shelves and other accessories that can make organizing any space a breeze.
Adding a shoe rack on the wall-mounted system or a free-standing rack will keep the family’s shoes out of the way and matched, so everyone can find the left and right shoe quickly and easily in the morning – even with sleepy eyes.
Keeping an organized space will not only keep parents sane, it will help kids start their day more relaxed and ready to learn.
