Organizing a child’s room can be a daunting task that is for sure but I’m here to offer you some simple steps for getting it done in no time flat. I will also explain how to get your kids involved in the process.

Over the weekend it dawned on my hubbie and I that we had quite a few baby toys in the house that my 3 year old son was no longer playing with. We can see that he definitely has his favorites and everything else, although once loved, had just become clutter.
So we set to work [...]
Today I procrastinated my picture organization by doing a little tweaking in my son’s (age 9) closet. It actually all started with the games cupboard in the basement which some of you will remember looks like this.
Nothing fancy but it does the job. Well see those puzzles on the bottom shelf? My middle son no [...]
My friend Sandy over at Reluctant Entertainer has started off our keepsake/picture month talking about how she organizes her kid’s keepsakes into binders. It’s very similar to the method I use so I thought this would be as good as time as any to share my system with you again. Stay with me because at [...]

My daughter (11) collects a lot of stuff. She is particularly fond of notebooks and purses. I’m particularly fond of clutter free floors. So we compromise. If she can keep the stuff in her room off the floor in some kind of orderly fashion (not just piled 10 feet high on her desk) then she [...]
Have you heard of Caboodles? You are probably going to say yes. Apparently I lived under a rock in the eighties when these were popular because not only didn’t I have one I’ve never even heard of them.
Hello Caboodle! Where have you been all my life?
Unfortunately though this one isn’t mine, my girlfriend picked this [...]
If you have school age kids then you have backpacks to deal with. I definitely recommend having a designated backpack station to keep them contained and organized in one central location. I like having my kid’s backpacks right by the front door so they can drop them in their designated space as soon [...]
