One would think that being homebound for so many days might be the perfect chance to tackle those organizational tasks you've been putting off for lack of time. One would be wrong. But that doesn't mean you can't get inspired to try. Here are some excellent tips for conquering toy clutter, a problem many moms can relate to. The entire post can be found on The Mother Huddle, a blog full of fabulous ideas, but here are the basic steps:
- Check the Inventory
- Sort and Classify (divide and conquer)
- Lose the token "Happy Meal" toys
- Secure and Organize
- Have a Plan
Happy conquering!
Sadly, the token Happy Meal toys are the hardest to lose. I can't tell you the tears we had to endure trying to find the "cell phone" she got from Wendy's (it was actually a calculator) in spite of having three phones that actually made noise.
