Creating a Good Study & Homework Space

Consider how your child learns and what their individual needs are. Do they need total quiet or can they block out noises and their surroundings? For your young children, if and when they need help with their homework, selecting a place that is centrally located can be a deciding factor. You may need to be able to help them while you are busy in the kitchen tending to dinner or laundry.

Although your assistance is less crucial for older students, limiting distractions will be more essential. Consider the option of a standing desk for them. This helps keep them alert and after a day of sitting behind a desk at school, and/or couch surfing watching tv or video games, it can be a healthier option.

Your kids will be more productive and appreciate the space more if you consult them when determining, where to set up space, what to include and how to decorate the space. Adding things like a bulletin board or magnetic or dry-erase board, a comfortable chair and desk will make homework more tolerable and concentration more likely. Using the kitchen or dining room table may seem like a good option, but it isn’t. When mealtime comes they will have to clear off their work or move it aside, but their homework may get dirty or stained from spilled food and drinks.
