![]() ![]() ![]() Some have their own built-in cubbies for each child, and some have awesome calendars, to-do lists, grocery lists, etc… all posted and displayed in the most organized and decorative way. I have been eyeing all of those cool “command centers” and luxurious entryways to homes in Pottery Barn and Pinterest. It’s the place where you put the lunch boxes, backpacks, shoes, papers, mail that you promise you are going to go through tomorrow. I also needed a nice spot to place all of the items coming in and out of our home and make it look organized. ![]() So, lately, I have especially seen the need to create a sort of “command center” or “drop zone” in our home so that our whole family knows who is going where and who is doing what each day. We need to pack those three hours with a little “homework,” fun outdoor activities, and a bunch of transporting and unbuckling of car and booster seats! PTA meetings, soccer practice, soccer games, flag football practice, flag football games, ballet, The Little Gym, and the list goes on! Your leisurely summer schedule comes to an abrupt halt and the need for an organized after school schedule becomes imperative! Since this is the first year that my little guy can actually participate in fun “after PRE-school” activities, and my daughter is in school all day, I have a new “game-on” time which is the 3:00 to 6:00 hours. You remember the mudroom, right? Well, the mudroom has a new face, new functionality, and a new name: The Drop Zone.Īs school begins, we start to get busy with homework and projects, but we are mostly busy with all of those after school activities. ![]()
