Follow these easy steps in order to provide a means with which to raise your children with the organizational skills they need for a lifetime!
- Get a bunch of bins or empty shoe boxes
- Cut them down to size if they are too big to fit in dresser drawers
- Designate each one for a different category of clothing- specifically the smaller pieces that get crumbled and lost i.e- underwear, socks, undershirts, tights...
- Show your children that each category has its own place, and tell them that you expect them to be clean, organized and in-control of their own clothing.
Let me know how it goes!!
thanks for the idea! my dd's drawer is a big mess. this sounds like an easy way a 6 year old can keep her drawer neat
ReplyDeleteYes it is! My kids love this system. Everything stays organized and now they can put away their own laundry right into the designated boxes.
