    I love the upcycled cans on the lazy susan organizer and the coordinated locker accessories. I was a single mother with shared custody when my children were in school…we switched mid-week because of my job schedule. My daughter learned very quickly how to stay organized (a skill that has served her well in adulthood); my son never seemed to get the hang of it, although he's figured out a system that works for him now.

    I love the graduation shirt idea! Having outfits labeled for each day of the week is super helpful too. I did that with my girls when they were little.

    A ton of great ideas here. I love the IKEA cart. I need to start thinking about these things since we start in less than 2 weeks. Pinning this!

    Great ideas! We homeschool, but there are still a lot of these that would work well for us, like the snack station!

    School supplies. I thought I had everything until I cut the ear bud chord when I opened them. Now I get to buy them again.

    There are certainly enough ideas there that one of them is sure to help someone with something they need help organizing. O think I like the lazy Susan school supplies tray the best.
