Homework: the kids hate it, the parents hate it.
Iโm always looking for new ideas to make getting the homework done a more pleasant experience.
And I have been thinking lately that a designated homework station might be just what we need to keep everyone organized and motivated as we head back to school.
After doing a little looking around for homework station, I found tons and tons of fantastic ideas on how to put together some excellent homework areas in my home!
Some homework stations are a corner of a room, and some are desks, but all look very effective at keeping all of the supplies right where you need them!
Take a look below and see if any inspire you!
Having a well-organized space for your child to do their homework will help them complete their work.
1. The โessentialsโ on a tray
Markers, pencils, scissors, crayons, glue sticks, colored pencils, paper, erasers and more.
The kids love having all they need at their fingertips, and I love that everything is gathered in one spot.

2. Colorful space
A basic pegboard has been customized by adding containers, hooks, and mini shelves to keep all the materials tidy.
The desk and pegboard will comfortably fit into a small corner of any room so it can be placed in a kids room.

3. Book shelvings removable
By attaching the bookshelves (IKEA spice racks) to the pegboard, she can move all the components around as her needs change.

4. RASKOG cart
I love the RASKOG cart! Itโs mobile, it can be used for multiple purposes, and itโs so cute!

6. Wall-sized cork boards
Wall-sized cork boards are also a useful organization tool. In here, you can use the wall as a reminder board. Put up notes, calendar appointments and other things that can help you stay organized and on top of your school tasks.

7. Modernly Minimal
Keep things sleek and simple with a modern design study space. Rather than clustering books into shelves and tabletops, try getting organized by hanging shadowboxes for context. Add some bright, cheerful color, and youโll have yourself a tidy study area that also fosters a sense of creativity.

8. Wall storage
This craft space is small, nestled against the wall in one corner of the room, but it still packs a lot of punch.

9.Minimalist space
The desk can be set in two different positions: open and close. When closed the furniture is clean and elegant, and when the lid is lifted you will discover another layer of the desk with rounded corners and a hidden organizer.

10. Tri-fold display board
The tri-fold is excellent if you wanted to divide into sections: a calendar section, where the child can practice the days of the week, months, year, etc.; a weather section where the child can practice identifying the different types of weather; and a time section where the child can learn about telling time.

Setting up routines and goals, creating spaces to help them do their work and providing food that is quick and delicious has helped make our After School routine an enjoyable time, instead of a hectic time.
