Homework Help for Busy Kids - shopping list

Here’s my Amazon Wish list to help us get on track for Back-to-School homework time:
Isokinetics Inc. Brand Exercise Disc / Balance Cushion – 14″ Diameter – Blue

It comes inflated and is perfect for a “wiggly” child or anxious one. It’s like sitting on an exercise ball, but it fits right in your seat. I had students use these years ago and they are even more popular now! I’m thinking I need 3 in my home – one for each kid and me!

Time Timer, 8 Inch

I have wanted one of these timers forever! This really is on my birthday list. It makes no noise and visually counts down the time left to finish homework, do chores, etc. No nagging needed!

Officemate Slim Clipboard Storage Box, Charcoal (83303)

I was able to pick-up one of these at the thrift store. They’re the kind contractors carry. I like these better than the transparent ones because kids aren’t distracted by the stuff inside unless they need it. This is for my son who likes to move around to do his homework.

Tangle Creations Tangle Relax Therapy

Instead of biting erasers, cutting up small pieces of paper, doodling, and fidgeting this is great for stress relief and muscle therapy. I’ve also seen BAU92210 – Stringy Stress Ball, 3 Diameter, Rubber and Fitness by Cathe Starter Hand Grip (Pair).

Children’s Privacy Partitions – Set of 10
I guess if you have a really big family and need a pack of 10 -then this is for you. If not, share with another family! If you have a lot of kids working at a table together, you would put these between each child for privacy.
DESK BUDDY SENSORY BAR

I think this sensory bar is fitted inside your child’s desk so they can feel it when they need to fidget. This would have been perfect for a first grader I taught (years ago) who cut up his entire math book with scissors inside of his desk. He looked so cute and innocent – little did I know!
