Use a single, dedicated folder to store and organize kids' artwork, awards, and special papers from school. This helps keep messy areas tidy and makes it easy to find things when you need them. It's a great spot to display important documents like vaccination records and report cards too.

I actually use a similar approach for my kids' school paperwork, but I also have a portable file system where I keep copies of everything from report cards to permission slips and medical records. The one folder approach is good for general keeping-up appearances like artwork and photos, and I have designated spots on the fridge and in their bedrooms for those. But for official documents, it's helpful to keep multiple backup copies in case something gets lost or misplaced.'

I find that using a portable file system is super useful. I've got one dedicated folder for each child, and it's where I keep all their important documents like medical records, permission slips, and report cards. Having multiple backup copies helps ensure I don't lose anything important if something gets misplaced or damaged.'
