AFTER six weeks off, getting back into the swing of the school run is never easy.
But if the morning rush is something you dread, then no fear!
Super organised mum named Nicola Lewis, who is from the UK, has taken to TikTok and shared the four back-to-school organising tips she swears by.
In the clip, she begins by urging parents to introduce a shoe station into their homes.
"Store and contain the kids shoes, plimsolls and trainers in a basket," she says. "Remember – toe down!"
Nicola then encourages the use of reusable silicone food pouches, which she insists are a "game-changer."
"Instead of using a container, these are slim, washable and easy to see," she explains. "And save yourself some money and put a reusable water bottle in their bag."

And lastly, Nicola advises folding the PE kits and sports kits into neat parcels and storing them inside the PE bags.
"I also label – this is essential – the inside of the shoes and keep them in a separate bag and place inside," she explains.

Meanwhile, a fourth advised: "You can also use hanging organisers and have one 'shelf' be one day. Helpful if you have a girl who wears tights daily but socks on PE days as socks."
