Why are so many professional organizers in business? Because organization is not often taught at home or in schools. Yet organizing skills are important tools a child will take with them regardless of their path and are instrumental to development, teaching children to manage themselves and their time and providing them with the structure they crave. It doesn’t matter if a child completes his homework if he can’t find the piece of paper when it is due!
Join us on August 18th at 10 AM EST when we will speak with Laurie Martin of Simplify, a Certified Professional Organizer with a B.A. in Childhood Development. She has written two organizational manuals for children entitled “Simplify: The Organized Child” and “Simplify: The Organized Teen”. She’ll help us learn how to help children get and stay organized!
