Create a Family Work Space to Make Life Easier
Some families have itineraries that are difficult to keep track of, others have issues with keeping track of belongings, and so on and so forth. If you and your crew face such hurdles, it may be prudent to create a living workspace for the family. This is different from a home office area, as it is meant to be out in the open, visible intentionally. It is also created to assist every member that lives within the household, a place for everyone to seek clarity, and organisation for big and small information and perspective.
A long skinny table or desk will be of great benefit in making this a highly functioning resource. Have each person choose a colour that will mark their materials, and zone. Above the work table hang a square bulletin for each of you in the colour selected to hang important news, cards, notes, and anything else that would otherwise get lost underneath a pile of papers ig you did not have this feature. Under the table place a tray in the same shape as the table to put the shoes most recently used and not worthy to enter deeper into the home. On the desk itself line up folder boxes in the colours again, and allow each person to put workbooks, sheet music, magazines, homework, or whatever needs to be taken out of the dwelling in the near future, and is important not to forget. This will become the central spot in the home where members know to go when in search of something, and where to leave those pertinent supplies. Remember the table or desk need not be expensive, just able to meet the needs of your entourage.
