Today, I’m linking up with the
Frenzied SLPs to describe some organizational tips.
Frenzied SLPs to describe some organizational tips.
Two new ideas!
1) One day I was shopping on Zulily
and saw a car seat organizer with expandable pockets. Something about the
design gave me an idea. Here is a picture of what I’m talking about.

This organizer has pockets that are
deep enough to hold decks of cards. If you are an itinerant SLP, you KNOW how
helpful this could be! After purchasing that organizer, I went a little
crazy with car seat organizers and bought two more. Here is another one.

One of the benefits of using these
is that you can remove them quickly and easily if necessary. I had to leave my
car recently to have some work done on it. I quickly unclipped the organizers
and stored them securely until I got my car back. Then, I was able to quickly
pop them back into my car. Easy-peasy!

2) Again, while trolling Zulily,
I spied this-a set of plastic boxes that could be useful for holding card
decks. If you have Super Duper cards that are in the old, card stock boxes,
these would work for you. See the photo below.

It gets better. The whole set of 18
boxes fits into individual slots in a large storage shelf. Now, you get the
idea that I travel a lot, but I have not yet figured out exactly how I will use
the shelf. I may just keep it at home and grab what I need for the day before
heading out the door.

And now, a not-so-new idea!
3) Giant zip-lock bags. With
HANDLES. I purchased the bags shown below at our local Dollar Tree. There are
three bags per box and they come in different sizes.

I’m kind of addicted to
them. I like to use them for book companions. All items go into one bag, and it goes into the back
of my car. Done!
Hope you get some ideas to make
your SLP world a little more organized!

Now I just want to organize my car. That is one area that is surely a dumping ground! Love those large bags too. I used to own a lot for my home, but couldn't find them any more. Thanks for the dollar store tip! Great choice for your book this week. I have the same plans!
Abby says
Those plastic bags with handles seem like a must-have! I'm off to Dollar Tree after work to see if I can find some. Thanks for the tips!

Nice! I never considered the pockets for the car. I now travel to two other sites so the tips are extra useful for me. Thanks

Ziplock bags with handles! You just made my day. I didn't know they existed- I have to go shopping. Thanks so much!

Those bags are solid gold!! I'll be heading to dollar tree this week, for sure!!
Ashley Bonkofsky says
I love those clear boxes for card storage. Because they are clear you don't have to spend time labeling them! Thanks so much for sharing!
Heather Hammack says
Can you share the product information for the clear boxes for card storage? They are a must have for my therapy room!!
Natalie West says
Wow, those bags are AWESOME! I must get my hands on some of them! Thank you for sharing!
