Homework Box

by Toni Herrbach

Kristin shares this tip for helping your kids make the most of their time.

“I have three kids and someone is always sitting around at sports practices or piano lessons while another practices. I finally made a “homework box” that I keep in the car. It started as a former small plastic pencil box, but I’ve since upgraded to a sturdier plastic bin. It now contains a few pencils, crayons, a glue stick, a stapler, and a pair of scissors. It’s generally enough to get the kids going on most of their homework. (I always forget the 6 in ruler!)”

    This is a lifesaver when your kids keep getting up from the table to get random stuff every 10 minutes!!!! Even for my 11 year old I have one!
