HOW I GET ORGANIZED FOR BACK TO SCHOOL WITH 4 KIDS // TIPS AND TRICKS FOR A STRESS FREE FIRST DAY

[@MrsBrian-sy9eb]

Regarding the kids' artwork - one other idea is to keep just the most sentimental special ones and scan/digitize all the rest - that way you can have everything they've ever drawn, etc.. digitally. Then you can do one of those books that you can get made online - with either a chapter for each grade or a separate book for each grade, for each child. You can also have notecards, business cards, Christmas cards, shirts, bags, etc........with any of the images on them - the sky's the limit!!! Thanks for all the tips!!!!!

Tapping into my inner Lauren Nicholson and getting some cabinets organized. I’ve got ur video playing and propped up on a shelf while I get to work. Thanks for the motivation!

[@theirishcailin333]

I was doing that today too. Love watching and listening as I get to work

[@cynthiatorres6545]

I do the same lol !

[@lindds5398]

Wow!! You're such a great mom who pays attention to detail and organization as well! As a teacher for 3 decades or more I can't recall getting any gifts from parents either. It's nice to know that there are thoughtful parents out there! Keep the love flowing!

[@danielledarling34]

You are the most organized mom! A superwoman. Your organized brain should be studied lol. Great ideas!

[@emilyellemagic]

You're the organized mom I never had. Lol I love my mom, but because she lacked skills in organization and routines, back to school was always stressful, as were planning parties, school events, and everything else. Watching your content is so nice for me to watch because it indicates that these things can be done more easily and happily, instead of scrambling and stressful.

[@heyyyhailey]

Love this comment! I relate to this so much, my mom rolls her eyes even today at a lot of this stuff, but this is calming and so helpful for us busy women/moms out here!!

[@carabenfield4240]

Me too! I completely understand.

[@mzantwine]

You’re mom did the best she can.

[@cherie2291]

Those zipper pouches for artwork...GENIUS!! I will definitely be implementing this hack.

[@terrao4971]

I don’t have children yet but this gave me great ideas! One can never prep themselves too early 😊

[@chelseareviews300]

I love the sidewalk chalk idea and the storage bags for their keepsakes (I previously kept a stack in a closet and then put them in a 3 ring binder at the end of the year… that gets messy and out of control very quickly!). I also look forward to reading the book you suggested. Ordering the book and storage bags now! I just found your channel a week ago and love your content. Thanks for the tips!

Looking for back-to-school inspiration and ideas from another mom is always helpful, especially to get organized and motivated for the new school year.

[@storytimewithabi]

Super cute ideas 💡 😍

[@rnguyen2516]

Hi Lauren, I love how you send the kids’ school supplies in a large bag with the checklist with their names on . I also love how you welcome the teachers into your children’s lives. I love your back-to-school traditions and all the ways you remind your kids that you’re always thinking of them throughout the day. We have the Kissing Hand, too, and The Invisible String. My six year-old daughter refers to the Invisible String often. are such a kind-hearted mama and beautiful inside and out. I wanted to ask where you got the bins with lids for the homework caddy. I was looking in your links but didn’t find them. I love the zipper pouches for the school work, but I think I’ll use those for puzzles and board games, too. Your blog is beautiful! Can’t wait to try some of your recipes.

[@kay4742]

Excellent! Wow- beautifully done organizational skills to the max☺

[@hollyann6083]

Hi. New to your channel. I just ordered the cute bracelets for back to school❤I saw them in your description. I love the silicone liners too. Ordering those next! Lol but the bracelets i hope are good quality!

[@TheChickwithguns]

We discovered that having my kids lay out their clothes the night before is crucial. It saves the “lost shoe search and rescue”. We also have socks that fit all three kids, so they don’t have to wonder whose sock is whose when they do their laundry each week. They get plain black socks, and it’s simple-no matchless socks, no arguments between daughters about whose pretty sock is whose. I also now make lunches the afternoon before. We started sending them to a private school this past year (I homeschooled for years before that, so mom’s still adjusting to missing my kiddos and that special time of teaching and training). I get up super early, so I hate having to make lunch when I’m not caffeinated and not necessarily as sunny as I could be. It’s nice to make the lunches, put them in the fridge and then when they get home, I gather the lunch boxes, clean them up and refill them for the next day. It gives me more time to get the morning under control, and I also have more time for special requests at breakfast-my youngest is a scrambled egg addict.

[@Dulceamor510]

Love these ideas!

[@shannensantonja8673]

Do you think you could do a get organized for college classes?

[@akofabulous]

Where are the small clear organization cups from? The ones you put in the bigger clear bin?

[@GreyPhoenix117]

I have a question for the kids clothes: they get a new outfit each day, so they are not wearing something twice a week (pullover for example)? How do you organise laundry? Are you washing the clothes, when they are just worn once? Or are you putting them back into the closet? It blows my mind to wash seven outfits for four kids in one week. I'm am assuming that is not the case, do you check the kids clothes every night, what needs to be washed or what not, or how do you keep track of that?

[@MsSnowhite5]

Where are the mesh bags from that’s in the school supplies bag

[@ssd7922]

I love your organisational skills, brilliant. I'm sure I've missed something tho, description says 4 kids and you laid out 5 sets of clothes? Hmm

[@ItsTheWitchOfTheWest]

Is there a link to your kids lunch ideas sheet?

[@patriciadc]

I’m looking for those too!

[@kristie3592]

I feel like it would much easier to be organized in a big beautiful home with lots of extra money to spend on things to keep organized than it is in my tiny house with an even smaller budget. I guess it works out. I don't have spare cash to buy l that stuff but even if I did there would be no place to put it. Lol

[@allisonfriesen7696]

Same.

[@pamcook5629]

I kept both of my boys' art work over all their school years. I know my younger son doesn't want anything. My older one most likely doesn't either. I kept a few things out to display for holidays. I know that I have to throw 99% away, but it will be difficult.

[@MrsBrian-sy9eb]

If they have kids - or will have kids someday - you can see if they want it someday - or use them as "wrapping paper" for them.....alternatively - do you think anyone at your local senior living center would enjoy them?....or perhaps a local children's hospital for their hallways?....or maybe a pre-school or elementary school teacher that would want them for her classroom? I'm just trying to think of other options so you don't have to throw them away! Sounds like you are a fantastic mom!!!!!!!!! 🙂

All because the students wanted to express themselves smh. Uniforms made my life so much easier so here is to the first year without😩

[@christinerush950]

Great advice for giving teachers a back-to-school basket! Our teachers need to know that they are loved and respected, and appreciated for all the hard work they do, for our children, all year long!!! Such a valuable video- thank you so much, Lauren!!

These are all great ideas. I do want to say don’t forget the aides. They are not only 1:1 they do help the entire class. Even the lunch ladies. The spend a part of the day with the kids that is just as important. Just saying. May not have the biggest role as teachers but they do help.

[@joanndelise7292]

I just love how you get organized for your children and help motivate them when school begins. How wonderful you talk about the teachers and to let them know how much you appreciate them. I was fortunate to take early retirement and afterwards worked part time for several years in school. They are dedicated to the children. Lauren you are a wonderful mom and I know your children appreciate you, especially when they become adults. Have a blessed day.
