Organize your kid's room

When it comes to organizing the kid’s room, it demands maximum effort. General scene of a kids room is: all the garbage is on the floor; dress, shoes etc are lying on the bed; ward robe is full of almost useless things in the shabbiest manner. Now the first task is to put all the garbage in the waste bin, pick up everything from the floor and put it on the bed, hang jeans, school uniform and other stuff which can get dust and dirt easily. 

Primary step in organizing the kid room is designing the room in such a way it has some open spaces some completely closed spaces. Every time you need to take all the stuff out from the wardrobe and then reorganize it into the proper racks and stacks.

A desk must be there in the kid’s room to keep the school bag and stationery. Put all the pencils, colors and pens in a case or a box. Put proper sticky labels to the drawer so that one can easily identify the things inside it. A bookshelf is also required in the room but we need to make sure that only books are kept there. Organize the books on the basis of subjects, size; writers etc. in the assigned rack.

The bed sheet in the kid’s room should be of a color which can face maximum dirt and mismanagement. Always put one toy of kid’s choice beside the pillow. One bigger toy basket must be there in the corner to keep all the toys collectively.

Room cleaning should be a routine activity and try making the kids a part of it. Do it like a game where ask them to find out things which are out of sight from a long time and then show and teach the how to declutter their room to make it neater. One creative way can be divided the games and toys into various categories and asking them to put the things at the designated places. They will take part proactively and enthusiastically.

This way we can organize kid’s room in a better manner. Here we must inculcate into the kids that they must understand the importance of being organized and the value of cleanliness and hygiene in life.

Kitchen and Pantry are very important part of our home. We spend good amount of time there and if they are organized our work becomes very easy and our efficiency improves. Organizing Kitchen and Pantry is also an art. Some people have a general inclination and some creativity in organizing it.

Cabinet in the kitchen should be designed in such a manner that they are easy to handle. One can divide the different sections for various items like grocery, spices, bakery items, vegetables and so on.

Keeping the frequently used items like sugar, tea, spices, oil etc well within comfortable reach, makes working in the kitchen a lot easier. A regular shelf by shelf cleaning should be done systematically to minimize the cluttering. There should be a separate place where items in bigger quantities can stored for refill and service purpose.

Benefits of Decluttering

Decluttering is not all about making more space for things; it is also about giving you a decluttered feeling too.  To put this in simple words, being organized allows you to do and enjoy the things you like doing, like playing with your kids, cooking, reading, dance and so on. It gives you that “ME TIME”, which otherwise you would spend in arranging and finding the lost things.

When we talk about positive energy, feng shui says that the energy should have a free way to flow in a home. Now, this directly points that the home must not be cluttered. Hence, for a healthy living of all the family members, decluttering of the house is the very first and the basic step. By removing a few unwanted items we can make the place worth living, healthy and hygienic.

Furniture and similar stuff should be used only for the purpose for which it is meant to; rather putting and dumping everything on them as they are the part of the store room.

In a nut shell the benefit of decluttering can be summarized as follows:

Save Money: By reusing the ignored or waste items in a creative way will save money and lessen the garbage too. Firstly don’t buy things just because you found them cheaper than their usual price, secondly keep discarding and exchanging the unused stuff with something you really require.

Get More Space: Decluttering creates more space in the house and more useful items can be introduced in the replacement. It allows the optimal utilization of the even smaller available places.

Multiple Uses: Items that are useless for someone may be of use to other people. Giving our unused things to someone is like doing charity without spending any cash.
