This post was sponsored by Sylvan Learning. The opinions are completely my own. The past month has been spent shuffling the children into new rooms and reorganizing the house. We figured chaos during the school year would not be good for learning. With school starting now in just two days my thoughts have turned to how to make their new space more learning friendly.
