~Are you constantly tripping over books, clothes and toys in your child room?
~Are you for ever nagging him or her to clean their rooms and they tune you out?
~Do you get frustrated with lack of cooperation from your kids and clean their rooms yourself? Nobody wins this one.
Here are a few practical tips to help your stay sane and for your little darlings to get their rooms functional and beautiful.
~Add a second tension rod at a lower level. The lover rod allows your child to hang his clothes within his reach and it can be used for shirts or pants later on, when your child is tall enough to reach the top closet rod.
~Invest in some hanging over the door shoe racks to store their small toys and crafts.
~Use open shelves and containers instead of toy box to store his or her toys. They will have a better view of their belongings and easy access.
~Label Everything!
