I was going to say that I hadn't done anything (apart from another box set of DVDs - but that would have been boring!) but then I realised there is a crate at the bottom of the stairs which I have filled with stationery supplies - files, folders, wallets, plastic inserts, dividers, slip cases, notepads and the like - my nephew is about to change schools and I had a bit of a stock pile of supplies that with my change of job last year I now don't progress through as quickly (these were self-bought, not taken from work I hasten to add). Rather than my sister having to buy 'everything' I am passing these onward to them so they don't just go to waste. Once he's there and knows more definitely what he needs, she's going to come back to me and see if I have any of that spare. Kids invariably seem to stick things on and draw all over their folders etc, so just because some of these are in boring colours shouldn't matter. I have also earmarked a set of desk trays (of the in/out/pending variety if you know what I mean), that I shall offer for his homework space once he's settling into doing homework should it help. He isn't currently in the habit of regular homework practice or of having a given organised space in which to tackle it - there is a possibility this may change with the school move.
