Al-Quran Sangat Melarang Merebut Suami Atau Istri Orang, Mau Tau Apa Akibat nya?
The kids are back in school but with the end of summer activities and the preparing for the new school year, the kids toys, closets, and playroom may be left in disarray. Here are some ideas for getting those belongings sorted, donated, sold, and all around organized before the winter holiday season.
Start small, sorting through the toys that are not age appropriate. Donate toys that are in good shape to a local homeless shelter or sell them at a local resale shop but get rid of the things that are too young for your children, or the things they never play with. Organize toys by theme, age group, or by who belongs to what. If toys are broken or contain parts that pose a choking hazard, get rid of them.
Next, designate where the toys will go. Have a place for things like crayons, books, craft materials, cars, dolls or games. Use baskets,boxes,or shelving to store and label so the kids know where to return things when they are done.
After the toys are under control and safely put away, it is time to face the dresser drawers. If you don't have much storage, consider hanging clothes for easier storage. Again, baskets in the closet can help sort and store, or canvas hanging bags work well too. The discount stores have fairly inexpensive ways to organize, it is just a matter of how you want to do it. Cardboard boxes covered in wrapping paper or contact paper will even hold things like coloring books and markers. Get creative and go for it.
Finally, when the drawers are in order and the bedroom closets are straightened, take a final inventory to see that what is left is safe, has all the pieces, and that the clothing is the right size for each child and each child has appropriate shoes, coats, mittens, and scarves for winter.
Get rid of things that no longer fit or will not be worn or used. Sell it, donate it, but clear it out. You will find that by getting rid of extra clutter and getting organized the new school year will begin with a fresh start and give the kids a new outlook too. Homework will be easier if they have a place ready to do it and can find their supplies, and playtime will be more pleasant if they have their toys within easy reach.
Whether you work all week and can only tackle one project at a time on the weekend, or you are home during the week when the kids are in school, involve the kids too. Let them help you organize their areas and decide what toys they want to donate to a good cause or maybe sell. Make it a family affair and enjoy working together to make your home safe and organized. Happy sorting....!
