Kid's Rooms can be extra challenging for organizing and concurring the clutter. I know our boys rooms can be clean one second and the next it looks like a toy bomb went off without warning! Better Homes and Gardens has some great tips for organizing these hard-to-keep-clean rooms with the little one's in mind--check out these GREAT tips.
Create Special Spots: Make it easy for kids to keep their rooms tidy by creating special, clearly marked spots for absolutely everything they own. Choose small baskets, crates, and pails that are portable and light enough for little ones to tote.
Scale Down: Kids shouldn't have to ask for help to reach their belongings. Make playthings more accessible by installing shelves, cubbies, and hooks at a child's height. Open storage allows kids to display their favorite things, while trunks are perfect for bulky or seldom-used items.
Make Room for Hobbies: Always find room for your child's interests, whether that means bins for sports equipment, a flat surface for drawing, or a special hook for dance outfits.
And, always remember that Independence Matters! If you want an organizing plan to succeed in a child's room, involve your child in the process to devise a system he or she understands. This fosters a feeling of independence -- and excuse-proof cleanup.
