What an organized week looks like

The following is a sample plan of organization/cleaning and scheduling for one week:

Sunday

• Do the laundry
• Pick two rooms of the house and completely clean them

Monday

• Vacuum
• Put away any laundry that wasn't put away on Sunday
• Pick another 1-2 rooms and completely clean them

Tuesday

• Pick an area of the house that is a cluttered mess, and attempt to find places for whatever the clutter is made of. i.e- toys, important papers, garbage, accessories... Any free time today will be spent on just this area

Wednesday

• Mop any floors that need mopping
• Pick two appliances and thoroughly clean them

Thursday

• Come up with a menu for shabbos and the coming week
• Do a complete shopping
• Pick two shabbos items to make and cook/bake them
  

Friday

• Shabbos cooking
• rooms should be pretty clean, do a last sweep thru of them
  

Childrens Clothing Organization

We all know that young children are incapable of being fully organized when it comes to their clothing

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!!
