Getting Organized with KIDS!

Organized Home shares 8 helpful hints on how to help your kids' rooms stay organized! Sounds like an oxymoron, right? Wrong! The tips REALLY work!

1. Take a child's eye view

to organize a child's room, solutions must fit the child!

2. Bring the child into the process

if they are involved in the effort, they are more likely to maintain the organized room

3. Sort, Store, and Simplify

go through outgrown clothes, store out-of season clothes, and get rid of any "extras"

4. Contain, Corral, and Control

containers help to control the number of toys out at any one time

5. Make it easier to put away, harder to get out

the premier rule for efficient children's storage!

6. Organize bottom to top

the most used toys should live on the bottom shelves,

and store less frequently used possessions up top

7. Label, Label, Label

(my favorite!) :)

8. Build a maintenance routine

daily "morning pickups" and "nightly pickups" are the key!
