Summer time is cleaning time!!!

Now that school is coming to a close, it is a great idea to start thinking about how to go about storing the school related paraphanilia and pulling out and storing the summer accessories in an easy to view and store way!

My idea of giving the kids a cloth bag and letting them decorate it, and then subsequently use it for winter accessories worked like a charm again this past winter. 

My plan is to store all of the gloves, scarfs and boots in a large plastic container, but still keep it separated by five , for the five kids. 

We will reuse these bags for the summer, using them for bathing suits, sunscreen, swim shoes, goggles, swimming shorts, each kid's personalized towel, and anything else they may need. Everything fits nicely and it will be perfect for day trips- each kid will grab their bag and we are good to go!

Try it, let me know how it goes

*** tip***, the night before, refill the bags with their dry swimsuits and towels, so there will be minimal rush in the morning, especially on those days where you wanna get an early start
