One of my favorite projects that has also turned out to be a major lifesaver for me is the Homework Box


We’re headed into our 3rd school year with the homework box and I can’t imagine life without it.  To know everything we need to do homework is all in one spot makes my life so much easier.  As I was thinking about my love for my homework box I was looking at some other homework stations and thought I’d share some other great ones with you just in case you’re luckier than I am and can have an actual homework station in your home.
Here is another solution that can be put on the table and put away if you don’t have a designated area.

Another darling portable station involves a turntable – this would work great if you have a designated area or you (like me) use your kitchen table.

I have a love/love relationship with Ikea, I always see something I just have to have and this rolling cart has been on my list for it seems like forever.  I think this is about the most perfect use I’ve seen.

Since I am feeling a bit like we’ve outgrown our home (what I wouldn’t give for an office…and a craft room…) I am jealous of people who actually get to have a homework area like any of these.  Oh my gosh they’re so dreamy, I would be in heaven.

I want lockers in my house somewhere so bad!!! (source)

You know I love a huge chalkboard! (source)

OK, this is just dreamy! If I take the furniture out of our family room I am pretty sure I can set up 7 of these stations. (source)

I’ve never been more sad that our closet under the stairs is actually the boy’s bedroom closet.  How cute (and useful) is this space! (source)
It’s official, I need a house that has a room I can turn into an at home classroom.  I LOVE nothing more than the idea of everything having a home and in our current house we definitely don’t have that.  Do you have a designated spot in your home where your kids do homework or like me do you have to settle for the kitchen table?
