The days are longer, warmer and summer is just around the corner. Now might be the perfect time to look around your home and see which rooms need a little pick-me-up.
A family room is just that – a room for your family. But having children does not necessarily mean that your home can’t have style. You just have to compromise; maybe you decorated it before you had a child and you don’t want to lose that style that you worked so hard to achieve. You don’t have to lose it, just work with it.
Parents often find themselves frustrated and annoyed at the mess in their home because of their child's disorganization. Perhaps it's time to encourage your child to join in with the clean-up routine.
I get exhausted just thinking about how much clutter kids are born with: clothes, shoes, diapers, wipes, bottles, toys, stuffed animals, paperwork and on and on. And it only gets worse as they grow up and start to participate in activities outside the home (think ballet shoes, softball equipment, Scout projects, homework papers and such). Sure, you can tell your kid to clean their room, but chances are they have too much and won’t even know where to start. Why not give a few of these tips a try to help your household recover from clutter.
