Back-to-school is less than a month away in my area, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t a LITTLE excited! I’ve loved all of the free time I’ve had with my kiddos, but I kind of long for the hours of silence! My kids have always been pretty good about doing their homework, when I started them! This year, I’m determined to make my kids great at self-starting, and I think these DIY homework stations will provide my kids with just the homework-starting inspiration I was looking for!

If you would rather that your kids do their homework at the kitchen table, where they are easily supervised, try making these homework pouches from Scissors and Spatulas. They can be attached to the back of any chair, and they’re completely adorable.
Over the door shoe organizers are great for virtually anything–even homework stations! Store any supplies your kids might need in a hanging shoe organizer. It’s so easy to keep track of things when you know where everything is! Idea from A Bowl Full of Lemons.
