Where are your kids taking their fall classes? Remotely or in their school building?
Many parents have a dedicated home office set-up, but how many of us have a dedicated remote learning zone at home for our children?
Having an appealing and well-organized “school” & study zone at home can help your student to focus, stay organized and establish a better work-from-home attitude and schedule. Here are some clever and idea generating solutions.
Family Friendly Workstation:
Have a dedicated work area for parents?
Add a desk and everyone can be there to do their own work and help each other!
Computer Lab:
Sometimes we have to share computers and almost always need to share the printer.
Setting up a long desk enables everyone to do their own work and have access to sharing the computer/printer. Set up a section to keep school supplies on hand and accessible to all.
Hallway/Nook Remote learning Station:
You’d be surprised at the places you can use to create functional and pleasing spaces to work.
A shelf in a hallway with file cabinets as a base; a tucked away corner; a slim counter in the family room or underused section in the kitchen dining room. Think about the spaces in your home or apartment that can be adapted.
Closet Transformation or a stair landing:
We almost never have enough closet space for clothing, but sometimes where there’s a will there’s a way! How about the landing on the second floor of your home? What about that awkward space at the end of a hallway? Lofting a bed and utilizing the space underneath, is similar to how college students do it in their dorm rooms.
