QUICK TIP: ORGANIZING KIDS ROOMS

If you are organizing kids, especially young children that have trouble remembering (or reading) where their items should go, take photographs of the items. These will serve as labels. Tape these photos (labels) to the outside of the designated shelf, drawer or bin.

Or instead of taking photos, clip pictures from magazines or newspapers. A third option is have your children create their own drawings of the items.

Tip: If your children draw a big picture, reduce its size on the copy machine. Or scan it onto your computer, save it as an image and resize the image. Then print it and tape it with clear tape to the front of the shelf, drawer or bin.
