Kids Storage for Books and Toys

Tidying kids’ rooms: Who’s job is it anyway?

More relevant with older kids, who’s job is it to clean up the kids room. Parents often want their older kids to be responsible, take care of their belonging, and keep their room neat and tidy. It is not too much to ask, but are kids doing it? For cleanliness to become a habit with children a sense of discipline has to be inculcated from a tender age. These habits go on with them as they get older.

Children are usually asked to tidy up behind them while they are at school. As parents we need to encourage these habits at home too. They need to realise that keeping tings organised is not restricted only to school and needs to be followed at home or anywhere else. Children will be motivated to get organised if everything has a place. It is easy for their brain to process what goes where.

If you tell plain blank to tidy their room it’s not exciting for kids and you can just wait for a miracle. But there are ways to make it easy, fun and rewarding to keep their rooms clean. Having kid’s storage units that are the right height and have the right kind of partitioning makes it easy for children to put back things.

A reward at the end of any hard work will be truly appreciated. Just a simple Thank You to your children for keeping their room clean can keep them motivated. A penny or two can be a good incentive.
