Below is a list of kids clutter items to consider getting rid of. In addition, there's a hall of fame where you can share your own success or get inspired by what others have accomplished.
We love our children, but it is amazing how such a little human being can accumulate so much stuff, isn't it?
And this type of clutter is insidious. You step on tiny little pieces as you walk by, you trip over bigger items just left in the middle of a walkway.
We really don't need as much stuff as we have, typically. The same goes for our children as well.
There are several challenges within the 52 Week Organized Home Challenge that deal with children, and their stuff, in our homes that I encourage you to read:
I've also created quite a few decluttering missions that accompany these challenges, to help you get this area of your home more manageable.
Whether you've done these missions when I've scheduled them during the year, or any other time doesn't really matter to me. I just want to celebrate your success, so here's your chance to show off some before and after pictures when you've done one of the missions. If you're ready to share now click here to begin!
Right now you're decluttering kids' clutter, but as anyone who has kids around knows there's a lot of types and varieties of this type of clutter around your home.
I've done the hard work of breaking down these tasks into smaller more manageable steps for you, so you don't get overwhelmed or worry you're forgetting a task, and you can go at the pace you want, whether that's fast or slow.
In addition, you can tackle these decluttering tasks in whatever order you want when you use these checklists!
The items to consider getting rid of and decluttering missions for this area of your home include:
